Ashampoo has announced the release of Ashampoo Burning Suite 16 ($59.99), and its more limited free version, Ashampoo Burning Suite 2016.

The new edition does a better job of finding song covers, even when there are no tags available, and can optionally blend multiple covers together into a single photo mosaic.

Simplified disc spanning – with new error recovery – and enhanced M-DISC support makes the program a smarter choice for backups.

There’s support for adding subtitles in SRT format to your video discs, while it’s now possible to rip audio CDs to APE files.

Jump list support and a reorganised settings dialog makes it quick and easy to access key features.

New skins and high DPI support ensure the program looks better than ever

High DPI support and a wider choice of skins ensures the program looks great, too.

The free Ashampoo Burning Suite 2016 is relatively basic, in particular with video (it can only burn video discs from pre-prepared video folders), but it’s otherwise a capable data and audio disc burner.

Ashampoo Burning Suite 16 and Ashampoo Burning Suite 2016 are available now for Windows Vista and later.
