Some Nero Suite applications require technologies developed by third-party manufacturers, some of which are contained in the Nero
Suite as demo versions. These applications can be activated online free of charge or by sending an activation fax to have unlimited
use of the version. Nero will only transmit the data necessary for activation of the technology licensed from third parties. For unlim-
ited use of Nero Suite, it is therefore necessary to have an Internet connection or a fax machine.

burning discs or for connecting new burners.
