Ashampoo Burning Studio 8 8.04

Ashampoo Burning Studio 8 8.04 is a  complete, compact and easy burning suite.

Does your burning software do everything but you can’t find anything? Did installing it take up several gigabytes of hard drive space and fill up your Taskbar? Ashampoo Burning Studio 8 is different. It's compact, fast and amazingly easy to use.

You just choose from a list of tasks and the software guides you through every step. And even though it has all the functions you would expect from a complete burning suite, the entire software takes up less than 85 megabytes on your hard disk.

Major Features:

1. Burn and update data discs. Burn data to discs and update previously burned discs by adding and removing files and folders.
2. Back up your data to single or multiple discs. Back up your valuable data to one or more discs. Single backups can span multiple discs.

Enhancements:

1. New Label Designer

Discs labeled with felt pen scribbles were yesterday. Now you can design and print cool labels, case covers and booklets in no time. The new Label Designer comes with a stack of professional themes and it can import track and data lists directly from the disc you want to label.

If you’ve ever struggled with label design software you will be amazed at how easy it can be. Just enter a title and any other data and then select one of the pre-designed themes. Your data is entered in the theme automatically and you’re ready to print. You can also design your own labels from scratch, but you don’t have to if you don’t want to.
