Nice burning app. It has a tasteful and functional GUI, burns reliably so far. My biggest complaint is, it doesn't have Explorer shell extensions. It could also use an option to burn ISO images with 1 click like some other burning programs.

Failed to copy and audio CD and thought that my CD drive had failed as CDBurnerXP had been so reliable to date. As other software succeeded, I left this one behind.

Great program but the author needs to stop associating with MALWARE PROVIDERS such as so-called "Registry Boosters" and the like. Garbage like that hasn't been necessary since NT4 and completely cheapens the credibility of this program. I don't care if the installation of such filth is optional; it shouldn't be there in the first place. FIVE stars reduced to ONE star until the author smartens up. We as users should execute zero tolerance of such crap.

the program does a fine job at what it does though there are a few apps that may be considered better like imageburn roj: they are optional so if you don't want them simply don't install them though i do agree that they should not be assosiated with them. alot of apps are sadly going this way. it would get a 4 but with the addition to those toolbar type junk it gets a 3.

I thought it was OK until I recently tried simply burning an ISO with it. Within two seconds of trying to start the burn, this useless thing issued a nonsensical error. Every other application I tried--same ISO file, same drive, same disc(s)--worked fine. Uninstalled.

Good burner, indeed. Now it is bundled with OpenCandy, a resident tool that spams you with recommendations about the software you may want to adopt. But if you do not want OpenCandy, just install staying offline, or (better) use your firewall to prevent the installer from accessing the net.

pjafrombbay: not all freeware is bad and there is a version without opencandy for the app it has alot of nice features but what it needs is: an audio cd ripper then it would be perfect, and also the developer should stop including garbage in the installers but instead make a pay version in addition to the free one so if users did want to buy the pay one then the developer would get something back. too much good software is becoming garbageware.

Clean, current copy available on homepage. Dowloads>more download options>default installer [without OpenCandy]. Choose your 32 or 64 bit poison and be happy while it lasts. 5 stars for the clean copy, not the one on offer here.

100% CPU when burning takes longer than ImgBurn to burn & verify 1/2 hour for 4.33GB Data DVD

Soldier1st, I am sorry if my review came across as being anti-shareware; I am totally in favour of shareware and AGREE with your views that the author of this good software should make a version of his program free of "crapware" AND charge for it. It is software that I would pay for so long as it was "clean". My on-going *** rating is not a reflection of the quality of this software, merely a complaint against the inclusion of "crapware".
