    Burning Software

    I have Nero 7 and like it myself but my nephew wants something different. What other CD/DVD burning software is as good if not better than Nero?

    Re: Burning Software

    I'm using InfraRecorder and CDBurnerXP in Vista, both free. I had problems burning a non compliant DVD in one of them (can't remember which), so went hunting for a second program. Other than that, they are both excellent alternatives to the bloated Nero.

    ImgBurn. It gets straight to the point and does the job well.

    Imgburn. I like the way images can be queued up for burning on multiple burners. It's a lot less bloated than nero as well.

    Re: Burning Software

    He just wants one to burn like Nero does but without all the guff that come with it! I have tried CD Burner XP and it seems great.

    Nero used to be great in the early days before it got bloated.
