Mike ;
I use adaptec, but a more stable program is "Nero burning Rom"
You can download a 30 day demo at : http://www.ahead.de/
I've been burning cdrs and cd-rw for use in my new Genica portable MP3
player(way cool)
with Nero and have had good success.
Nero 5.0  will convert and burn mp3s to regular audio files on the
fly,
(with a plugin) it works very well.
  I got version 4.0 bundled with a cd burner and they upgraded me to
5.0 for free.
