I think I confused people.
Tim wants to know why people bitch about EASY CD Creator. I dunno, it might have been my old shitty burner that turned me off to it
my new one came with nero and I got used to it. A lot of options and it does VCDs too.
I've posted this before but don't remember where exactly. IME, Sleazy CD Creator stinks. SCDC has introduced artifacts into my audio recordings in 1, yes one [1], generation. For data discs it's probably not too bad, but for audio it has caused me plenty of problems. Keep in mind this was SCDC 4, not the latest and greatest.
My general feeling toward SCDC and some other popular software is that they compromise quality in return for faster time-to-market because their primarily uneducated user-base doesn't know any better (and will use whatever software comes installed on the machine).
