Default Burning Software

I've had enough of Nero, plain and simple.
I've never used any other burning software so I need an idea for an alternative.
What does everybody else use?

LocKStocK's new spec:

Intel Q9450 C1 @ 3.4ghz
Corsair Dominator 1066 4x1gb
Asus Striker Formula
3x 280 GTX Tri-SLi
Coolermaster 850w
Thermalright 120 Extreme
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate

Umm, or if all you want is simple and free just use the burner built into windows. It's made by Roxio.

That works well too.
It doesn't support ISO images though. The ISO Recorder Powertoy should take care of that.

Nothing will ever beat Nero. Depending on what you are trying to burn will depend on how it works for you. Nero isn't the easiest program to learn, but once you do, you will never use anything else ..

Whats difficult about pressing add / add / finished / burn. Sounds real complicated

I use Burning Rom almost twice every week (don't ask ). Open proggy select type of CD to burn, add shiit, burn shiit, close. It's as complicated or easy as you want to make it.

But i'm with RickyC and Admiral in asking "why have you had enough?" Is it the bloat, having too many bells and whistles, something else... or is it "D", all of the above.
