 Surrounded by Codecs
Robert Margouleff on the state of audio surround sound
By Frank Moldstad
Don’t get Robert Margouleff started on the subject of competing audio surround sound formats. Speaking on a panel entitled "The Future Of Surround" at the Surround Conference in Los Angeles Dec. 12, the pioneering producer/engineer/mixer warned in advance that if asked what he thought of the market battles being waged between formats such as DVD-A and SACD, he would probably start waving his arms and flip out. Undeterred, panel moderator Bobby Owskinski asked anyway.

Ahead Software’s Nero 6: Ultra Edition
By David English
Some software programs are like all-you-can-eat buffets. Their main selling point is quantity rather than quality. If you’re lucky, the quality will be good enough. And if that’s the case, you’ll probably be content with the results. That’s certainly the case with Ahead Software’s affordable Nero 6: Ultra Edition ($99.99).

The company bills Nero 6: Ultra Edition as the “ultimate CD/DVD burning suite.” It’s a fair appraisal, at least until something better comes along.
