Burner Software

I'll be getting my first burner in a couple days (yeah, I know I'm behind the times) and was curious what software I should use with it? It's an OEM drive I bought from the board here and the seller didn't mention sending any software with it so I dont' expect to get any. It's an HP 10x4x32. Just curious if there is anything out there that everybody seems to like or if it's all up to the user.

TIA

For all purpose I prefer nero, for recording anything then it's clone cd. But naturally check if either support that cdrw. Easy cd is, well easy too.

i have nero 5.5 that came with a drive...works perfectly.

i imagine alot of software does this, but it has a nice feature for burning audio cd's...just drag and drop the mp3 file into the burn list. it converts to .wav on the fly as it burns.

Nero's the best in my book

another vote for nero

for general purposes, its great

i also use CDR-win and Clone CD for making CD backups

So far I have Nero 5.5.3.5 full version and it's working great. I've burned 3 CD's so far and it's real simple and easy. I really like it

I'll have to learn some of the little tricks like I know with CD-Win you can copy the cd to the hard drive and then copy that image to a CD-R (from what my friend has experieced, it helps against some write protection when you do it this way--any truth to it?)

I haven't tried CloneCD yet and don't really see a reason too. I guess I will once I get a write-protected CD which I can't copy

Thanks for the tips guys. This has been a new experiece since I've never personally owned one and I can see lovin' this thing!

Another vote for NERO(MP3's), plus CD CLONE(great for duplicating cd's) along with DISKJUGGLER.

Nero, especially if you want to burn VCD's.
