While recognizing all MMC compatible CD/DVD burners, it also accepts multiple media formats such as CD RW, DVD -RW, DVD +RW, as well as DVD RAM. The fully functional version contains no spyware, and does not insist on the installation of unwanted applications. Purchasing this software for $19 removes the pop-up averts displayed when exiting out of the application. ** This particular software will not copy CSS protected discs.

Burn4Free

.WAV, FLAC, WavPack, .WMA, M3U (MP3 winamp compilation), MP3's, MP2's, MP1's OGG, and CDA's (normal CD audio tracks).

This software also successfully burns and saves ISO files, over burning, open and save your project to disc, verify content, print compilation, copy DVDs, and import your audio compilation from M3U and ASX play lists. There are numerous drives supported, CD R, CD RW, dual layer DVD, DVD +R, DVD -R, DVD -RW, DVD +RW, DVD RAM (SCSI, IOE, EIDE, and USB 1.0 as well as 2.0). Previously the users were generously donating to the costs for development, however the software company opted to integrate NavHelper (toolbar search) as a sponsor, to assist in deflecting some of the costs for software development. By using the Add/Remove program in the Control Panel of your computer, you are able to delete the BHO plug in if you do not need it.

DivxToDVD
*VSO DivXtoDVD - Primarily designed for the conversion of internet movie file formats of .AVI, WMV, MOV, or .DIVX into corresponding DVD formatted files (VBO and IFO). After creating these files, you are able to burn them to DVDs using the burn software you prefer. This allows the video file to be viewed on the television by use of any standard DVD player. The quality ratio can be automatically selected, or manually set to a specified format. The software is compatible with NTSC and PAL video formats and automatically creates chapters, as well as supporting multiple audio tracks. This software is currently free, however, with new features planned for newer versions, you may be required to purchase the software in the near future.

Those familiar with Nero will relate well to the interface which is fairly clear and concise. Burning an audio CD from MP3 files is not available at the moment, that would require a conversion to WAV files for burning.
