    CD/DVD Burning Software

    OK, just reinstalled Nero 6 and it's rubbish. Hate it.

    What's your CD writing software of choice?

    Thanks

    Nero 6.

    Why do you hate it? It's way better than anything such as "Easy CD Creator".

    Maybe not 'hate', but it's got a function for making miniDVDs (VOB files on a CD). And it really screws them up to the extent of them not playing on most DVD players.

    So I'm looking for something better. I preferred Nero5 but would rather look at current versions.

    Another vote for Alcohol 120%, tho I also use Nero 6 sometimes and can't really complain tbh.

    Nero 5.5 and Clone CD for me.

    As for Nero 6, its full of bugs but getting better, its also bloatware compared to 5.5.

    Maybe I'm odd, but I was really impressed with Nero V6.0, especially the Video Express function, absolutely great for burning several mpeg files to DVD, all indexed.

    Ony critiscism is that it turned it's nose up at an ISO file that showed as 697Mb, saying there wasn't enough room on a 700Mb CD. ISO in question was Mandrake 9.2 Disc Two, so I burned all three Mandrake discs to a DVD.

    Also use Clone CD and have been meaning to check out Alcohol, have heard good things about it.

    I was hesitant about trying Alcohol, and put it off for ages, but it really is much MUCH better software. I don't even use Clone now.
