Hello

Well, the first and second give you an irresistible desire to sleep with inappropriate girls, the 120% just allowing you to get there quicker.

Nero was a Roman emperor with a pre-dispisition to killing lots of people and eventually commited suicide.

Alcohol 120% combines all functions of Alcohol 52% (CD & DVD emulation software) but with added DVD & CD burning capabilites.

Alcohol is more of an image creation/burning suite, wheras Nero is an all round CD/DVD burning suite. For example, you can't make your own DVD layout disc with Alcohol, but can with Nero. Alcohol is better for creating a backup image of your CD/DVD's and the ability to burn them. Nero creates backup images, but Alcohol has some more advanced copy protection removal processes.

alcohol also allows you to mount the image to a virtual drive, which can be very useful as it allows you to see and use/test the disk image without having to burn it.

recommended.

Where can you get hold of Alcohol 120%? There's an interesting message on the US website about problems they've run into with the copy protection removal software. Is it still available?
