Works Great
Pros: I've tried using Nero and it fell flat on it's face. Burn4free does a great job plus it's free compared to Nero which is going for aprox. $70.00
Cons: Minor issues such as positioning of some of the radio buttons. Some of the important ones are not intuitively placed and you'll spend a few minutes hunting them down the first time you use the product.
I agree on all points.
I uninstalled my trial version of Nero 8 after less than 24 hours. The reason is quite simple. Any product that installs and runs a background service (NMIndexStoreSvr.exe) that runs my 3.4GHz processor to 100% CPU utilization and grinds everything else to a crawl is, for lack of a better term, a pig. Until I identified that program as the cause of my system performance issues, I thought I had a virus. Having seen how it uses CPU resources, I would actually qualify it as malware.
Burn4Free is a great program that doesn't hog resources and is free as well.
