Packed full of new features and enhancements, Nero 2014 makes it even easier for users to manage all their photos, videos, music and other media across all their home and mobile devices. Plus those currently running Nero 12 can now upgrade to Nero 2014 free of charge.

Ideal for novices and advanced users

The latest media suite gives users a new, one-click conversion facility making it simple enough for novices while still providing a wealth of sophisticated options for advanced users, helping them to capture, convert, enhance and stream all types of media.

Patented technology under the hood

“Like the new generation of cars with dashboard options that are easy to use at a glance, Nero 2014 has cutting edge technology under the hood,” said Jürgen Kurz, CEO at Nero. “Its intuitive new features are based on our unique, patented transcoding and streaming technology that underpins the whole conversion process. People don’t just want to shoot or watch a video – they’re impatient to share it with friends, publish it on their blogs, and maybe enhance it with some special effects. Nero 2014 makes that possible – quickly and easily. We’re expecting strong demand for this new version of our media suite, and that’s why we’re encouraging new customers to buy Nero 12 today and be first in line for a free upgrade to Nero 2014 as soon as it comes out.”
