Burning Software

I've been using Nero for years. Let me correct myself: I've been using
Nero's CD & DVD burning app for years. The 30 other bundled apps just sit
there. After upgrading to vista, I thought I'd use Vista's built-in burning
capabilities, but find that *much* too slow.

That being the case, I can't see paying another $40 to upgrade an app for
which I only use *one* of the multiple apps that come with it. Why pay for
items I don't use, right?

So, I'm looking for recommendations for burning software that works well
with Vista, doesn't have a large footprint and simply works reliably. Any
suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
mxh

I use DeepBurner in XP but it doesn't list Vista support so keeo your eye
on it. Try the protable version (free) and run it off a thumb drive.

For burning CD/DVDs I'd seriously suggest you look at dual booting Linux
and using K3B - with over 300 burns I've never had a failure.

Do not and I repeat do not buy Roxio Easy media Creator 9!

I use the CD/DVD maker, and like it.

When I ran Vista I just installed the burning rom in Nero 7, there's no need
to even install the other stuff if you don't want to.
Now back in XP I just install v6 even though I have the license for v7, it
runs much quicker.

Just acquired Fireman 3.0 (see www.honestech.com ) via Amazon.com,
driven by reasons like yours.

Where does it say there is a Vista version?

DeepBurner works on Windows 95/98/2000/NT/ME/XP and is virtually compatible
with ANY CD/DVD burner.
