Commercial grade optical recording applications are rather rare on the Linux platform, but now Nero steps in to fill in the void. The problem with selling software for Linux is that the users expect to get it for free. Nero has invented a rather clever pricing for the new product -- NeroLINUX is free for the registered Nero 6 owners.
Nero, leaders in digital media technology, announced today the release of NeroLINUX, the Linux OS Solution for CD/DVD Burning. This newest member of Nero’s award-winning product family is now available for free for the registered Nero 6 full version owners.Source: Nero.com
