I have Nero Version 6.6 Ultra on my #1 machine. I find I only use Nero Burning ROM, Nero Recode and sometimes the utilities. I only access Nero Vision to answer VideoHelp questions. I don't like their players.

I recently rebuilt my #2 HTPC oriented machine to Core2 Duo and for Christmas received a Pioneer DVR-710 writer that came bundled with Nero 7 Essentials.

I also have a complete unopened retail Nero7 Ultra (not the newest "enhanced" version). Nero7 has been getting so many bad user comments, I haven't installed it.

I need advice for installing the basics for the new Pioneer writer on the #2 machine. Should I just install 7Essentials, or should I install 7Ultra? If Ultra, what are the traps and horror senarios to avoid? Are Nero 7 Burning ROM and Recode safe to use? What should I avoid?
