For me, Nero is the best ... I intend to get Nero 8 Ultra Edition this week.  http://www.nero.com/enu/index.html
The oem Nero which comes with some third party burners is a fine
product too.  The applications in the Ultra Edition are a great bonus.
I cringe when I have to use systems with some of the non Nero burning software.

regards, gerry

P.S.:  best wishes to all for a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season.
