Ok, the most popular question I get daily is what is the Best DVD Burning Software? To answer that I have to start with a question. What exactly are you looking for in a DVD Burning app? There are many choices with many features. But if I had to give 1 answer it would be DVD NeXt Copy. The reason being is that it is has one of the best DVD burning engines on the market in addition to being able to copy any type of CD or DVD.

Bottom Line |
When I was first looking for a DVD Burning App I had 3 requirments: Can I copy DVD's easily, Can I make backup discs of my important files, music, docs, etc, and Can I burn home DVD movies from my existing videos. I was pleased to find that DVD NeXt Copy did all of these and did it well. |
Pros |
Simple user interface, neatly integraged settings. Easy to understand. Best encoder on the market. Ability to put up to 10 DVD movies onto one Blu-Ray disc. |
Cons |
You won't be able to create Blu-Ray or 3-D movies with this software. Since this is not a major requirement for most this shouldn't be an issue. |
