yeah, it is weird. the first 2 or 3 cds i burned with express were fine, but every cd i attempted afterwards was all screwed up trackwise so i switched back to standard nero.
dwonk, it takes all of 2 seconds to set the gap to 0 in standard nero. just highlite all but the first track, right click>properties, set gap to 0.
done.
never used recordnow, but i really dislike veritas backup software(server backups...)
have you tried feurio?
