Ashampoo Burning Studio 2010
Ashampoo Burning Studio is one of the best CD/DVD burning software out there (Nero, Roxio, and BurnAware are the others) but I personally love Ashampoo’s interface the best. It’s simple, yet intuitive to use. It’s also not bloated compared to Nero (with a built-in audio editor and who knows what else).
I’ve grabbed the Burning Studio 2008 and 2009 for free in the past but now you too can grab its latest version, Ashampoo Burning Studio 2010. The catch? They will send you a nagging email every now and then asking you to upgrade to their latest version down the track (which I normally sent to my trash as soon as I got it).
