What is the best you guys have tried? Among the ones that arent freeware... roxio is so finnicky, too many programs cause it to malfunction. Nero malfunctioned on my system when I Installed alcohol 120 and I couldn't get it working right even though I have removed alcohol 120 and did a clean uninstall and reinstall of nero to make it work again. Still no luck. I have been checking out download.com and tried burnright! it works fine but I want something more flexible and with more options. What should I get???

I think DeepBurner is a good freeware burning app.

EAC (Exact Audio Copy) for lossless audio CD ripping, although it's a little finicky to set up.

for burning image files easily, i like to use Burn-at-once

For audio, try http://www.burrrn.net. Simple but effective.

I second the recommendation for Burrrn. It burns gaplessly and is great with cue files. I like Exact Audio Copy for extracting and Burrrn for writing cda audio to disc.

Burrrn is great; it reads EAC non-compliant .cue files.

I tried burrrn for audio and songs skip on the cd I made. I need something that is good with burners without buffer underrun protection. something that has a good decoder and something that burns without errors. An all in one product would be great. even better if it has a small filesize

Has anyone tried dvd power burner?

Skipping is due to bad discs or bad burner.

When your burn fails with a non-burn proof burner, the burning is halted altogether, resulting in an unusable disc.

It won't result in a skipping disc.

You'll have better luck with a good quality disc or a better burner.

Burrrn is a great program and burns just as well as any other program.

The added bonus is decoding features for many encoded audio files.
