I just switched to Vista and now my old reliable Nero 5 or 6 CD burning software won't work. 

I can burn audio files using Media Player and Windows Explorer but they both leave in 2 second blanks between tracks:  really annoying in a live recording!!

What are people using now in Vista?  Anything free?

You haven't seen the new Mac commercials?  People are switching back to XP if they want stuff that actually works...

agree.  I had vista, dumped it and back to xp.  vista sucks because none of the old shit works with it.  And yes, I know all about compatibility mode and all that other jazz, still doesn't work correctly. 

If you are going to stay with vista, you need all new software.  Yes, it sucks.  Bad.

I'm using Nero 8 on vista with no problems.  I DL'd the program off of a torrent site and it works fine.

Vista for the most part sucks...but I've adapted to other programs and it works fine for me now. 

But the shitter is I could never get vista and wavelab to play nice.  But....I've decided soundforge and vegas are just as nice.

That's so pathetic that they expect everyone to just buy new everything.  But I guess that's how microsoft and their partners make money.

It is also funny that after spending so much on the OS it can't even burn a DAO audio CD.

And it seems like nero changes the interface in every version... maybe to make it seem 'new' and worth the money. I guess it would be too much to ask for the DAO burn process to be the same in nero 5, 6, 7, 8, etc.

speaking of Mac
iTunes for PC will burn dao

EAC has a setting to burn DAO
and yes, vista sucks

On the CD layout editor, click layout on top and uncheck add 2 second gap

What's EAC?  If Exact Audio Copy does it work with Vista?

Thanks and +t for Vegas>SF and yes I was/I am in the same boat. I also has frontend (flac) problems and changed to traders helper.

Next computer I am getting will be SANS Vista and I'll be throwing XP on it. Haven't heard one good thing about Vista.

FYI, you won't be able to buy XP with a new computer after Jan 2008.  What this means is computers bought after that date will only have Vista and may have driver issues with XP since its not required to be qualified by OEMs.  Honestly I would get a Mac at this point and put XP in a Virtual Machine.  I was just playing with VMware fusion on this Mac Mini I have here and it's the best of both worlds.
