CBurner

CBurner is a CD/DVD burning software that can create data and audio discs, while also offering dedicated tools to burn virtual disc images.

The program doesn’t assault the user with complicated options, but instead it prompts him/her to choose the type of disc to start from the get go. You can thus create a data project, burn an image, copy a disc, create an audio disc or erase a rewritable one.

Just like all the other disc burning solutions out there, CBurner provides a multi-panel GUI that lets you quickly select the files to be included in the project.

If you’re not planning to create a data disc however and you’re looking for the image burning utilities, it’s probably worth mentioning that CBurner supports ISO, UDF and CUE images from either a hard disk or any other optical disc.

The audio CD creation process is a breeze too, with the program offering support for the popular formats on the market, such as WAV, MP3, FLAC and OGG.

Of course, CBurner lets you configure the burning process by choosing the speed and a method (Disc-At-Once and Track-At-Once are both supported), while it also shows a great amount of details until the task comes to an end.

The burning engine is fast and reliable and CBurner has no problem to run on any Windows version out there. On the other hand, it can’t create bootable discs, which is quite a problem for many professional users out there.

All things considered, CBurner is a decent burning solution that works smoothly on all Windows versions and needs just a bunch of improvements to become a top product in this crowded software category.
