Alternative to Nero Burning ROM?

[mltwitz]

What is a good (open source) alternative to Nero Burning ROM, for CD- and DVD-ROM burning, including burning audio cds (with m3u playlist support if possible).

Sadly the only free/open source burn software that is "full featured" is CDBurnerXP Pro but I've had pretty bad luck with it when I've checked it out.

Well, they're not open source, but for most burning tasks ImgBurn is great - I've used it for data & video DVD burning, as well as data CDs.

For audio CDs, a lot of people seem to like Burrrn, although I haven't used it.

There's probably others that have been discussed before that I'm not aware of - the "Search' feature should help you locate them

I use Prassi Ones. Not free but very inexpensive.

You know I've heard one ONES but never checked it out. Given my displeasure with NERO bloat I think I will.

I second Prassi ONES. Excellent program.
