Nero is the best CD and DVD writer which I have ever used with its powerful functions and user-friendly interface.I have used it for a long time and it has really served many of my purposes of CD and DVD writing.
Surely Nero is the best.But it comes with huge garbage which don't use some that utilities.If you use those utilities then it is best for you but for just simply burning purposes there are many freewares to try like Infra Recoder,CDBurnerXP.
