It's disgusting how bloated Nero has gotten lately. Especially with version 8. There are so many useless tools bundled in with the installer that it rivals the bloat of AOL since the version 7+ days. Ugh! Even choosing a custom installation and unchecking everything but the Nero Burning Rom still adds bloat to your system with the Nero ControlCenter and Nero Scout. No thanks, Ahead, I do not need yet another indexing service slowing down my PC. The built-in Vista search indexer works just fine.
But I still do like the Nero Burning Rom. I have tried others, but none offer the flexibility and versatility of the Nero Burning Rom engine. Now, how do I get that without all the bloat? Well, I could modify the MSI installation package and remove all entries that I don't need, but why should I go through the hassle when the lovely people at Updatepack.nl have done it for me?
Yeap. Never again will I download over 400MB of "trial" bloat from Nero's servers. Instead, I'll opt for a slim 41 MB of Nero Lite goodness.
