It seems that Ahead is offering 2 versions of Nero 6:

The difference is that the Nero 6 Reloaded has Nero PhotoShow Express and NeroMix and unlimited MP3 & Ogg Vorbis encoding, while the normal Nero 6 (the one posted today on your site) doesn't offers these features. Why would Ahead hide these new fearture? Because going to the nero.com and going to the "updates" page shows 4 packs for download. While the "hidden" Nero 6 Reloaded has 6 packs for download and has 2 more programs & unlimited encoding.
