 3 edits | [POLL] CD Creation Software - 2008 Member Choice As defined by wikipedia.org
Optical disc authoring software is computer software for authoring optical discs including CD-ROMs and DVDs. They are also known by synonyms such as CD burning application or DVD authoring software. Such software is required to use a optical disc recorder.
Creating an optical disc usually involves first creating a disk image with a full file system designed for the optical disc, and then actually burning the image to the disc. Disk file systems include ISO-9660 (often known simply as "ISO") and Universal Disk Format (UDF). ISO is most common for CDs and UDF is most common for DVDs.
This poll is multiple choice; if you use multiple programs to burn discs feel free to select them
A lot of hard work went into this so please take the time and vote  |

 tahoejeffPremium join:2001-07-01 Wisconsin Dells, WI 1 edit | I've been using Nero for many years. I know there are Nero haters out there, and sure, it is bloated. But it does what I need it to do, and it does it dependably. I also use Imgburn. |

 1 edit | reply to gate1975mlm I always used Nero in the past but got really tired of what has become a bloated package. So now I use the nice and simple Ashampoo Burning Studio 7.0. It does just about everything I need. |

In Windows I use Nero and Imgburn, but I use K3b most of all, since I'm in Linux nearly all the time. It's an excellent free program.
Thanks for the poll, gate1975mim .

I voted Ashampoo. I used to use Nero, but since getting Ashampoo for free and giving it a try, I found out it worked just as well for my use. -- Team Discovery "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 |
