Download Nero 8 three weeks early

Nero 8
Sure, Nero 8 is due out on October 1st. But if you can't wait to get your hands on the next version of this popular CD/DVD burning application, you can download a trial version at Softpedia today.

What's intriguing is that word on the street is that there's a full version of the software floating around the BitTorrent networks already. There's a good chance it's the same version you can download legitimately from SoftPedia. So if you want to avoid the $80 license fee, it might not be too hard to find an active serial number.

Not that we'd condone or even recommend pirating the software. All we're saying is that if a legal download site like Softpedia is going to release your company's software weeks ahead of schedule, you'd best have a system in place to sell people registration codes. Because right now, it looks like you can download a free trial, and you can pre-order Nero 8 from the official website. But you can't legally buy the program until October 1st, which could lead some folks to find alternate methods of unlocking the product.
