Nero Burning Rom Alternatives

@ Growled

Thanks!

I put non working links on purpose because of the danger that those websites represents. Lot of them are offering burning programs bundled with viruses, trojans and some other nasty stuff. :)

If those programs are bundled with dodgy files, surely the thing would be to not link to them at all? :/

Hey, how about 'Ashampoo Burning Studio 10' ? it's so good :D. Please make a review for it !

+1 on that one, brother! I love imgBurn; it's the only one I use for everything, even Audio CD burning.

You cant burn audio CDs with ImgBurn. Thats the only - it has.

You actually can. It's not the most convenient way of doing it, but it's possible.

Thats a workaround and you are burning a .CUE file, not making a audio CD.

.CUE files "break up" audio files to split them into different tracks.

It works*? Yes. Is it truely a audio CD? No.

* - If you dont have the decoders for FLAC files and you have FLAC files, then this will not work.

There are free flac decoders available on the net. Yeah, not the easiest thing, but you can burn Audio CDs with it.

For music discs I use Sony Cd Architect. I love it.

nero hasn't been the best since version 6, before they started adding tones of unneeded bloat

it's rather sad, I used to love Nero :(

as did I....but I use IMGburn and/or converters, always convert to ISO, and NEVER have any problems. I can split mutiple copies of discs out pretty darn quick when needed to, with a SATA DVD/CD R-RW drive...using free software with WAY lots less hard drive space required. Nero=dust in the wind. Just sayin'. To each his/her own.

I use Sony CD Architect for music dics but i dont burn data cds or dvds anymore.

[skilithead]

IMGburn and Converter Lite in my toolbox .

^^^This definitely. Its just way too much bloat. I find myself needing to burn fewer and fewer discs is why I have gotten away from being so dependent on Nero. I dont think I would have made that change had nero stayed unbloated.
