Completely lacks support

Interface: 4
Features: 4
Ease of use: 2
Value: 5
Overall:

I have yet to resolve several issues that arise when burning on a Samsung CD-R/RW SW-252S, with errors on the lead-out section. I have no doubt that this will cause playback difficulties on some audio equipment. This in itself would not result in a negative review if it wasn't for the UTTER LACK OF SUPPORT for the product. There is no documentation whatsoever, and the official "support" page is basically a blog (with comments disabled, no less). No FAQ, no forums, no nothing. The only recourse is to comb various "unofficial" forums and hope you find someone who knows what they are talking about. A word of warning: Most of them DON'T. If you have a Samsung drive and you need burning software, keep looking. I can't recommend this.

Buurrnnns me up

Interface: 3

Ease of use: 3
Value: 5
Overall:

While I don't think this is the worst burning app, I installed it on 3 computers to test it, oddly enough, the created disks only play on selected players, one van, but not in my car, only on my stereo but not my son's. When I use others, they play fine in all so I wasn't too impressed with Burrrn. It's ok I suppose and better than some and definitely better than nothing but I won't be using it for my coasters, I mean, audio disks.

A simple program that works flawlessly

I tried to use CDRWIN, CDBurner XP, and Feurio to burn a a cue file and none of these programs recognized my HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20N drive. Burrrn, however, worked with no problem whatsoever! A simple program that works flawlessly and is free.

Burrrn is a VERY easy to use program to convert your .mp3's (and most other audio formats). Burrrn converts the music to standard audio format and it burns it to the CD for use in any regular CD player- home or car. I've used Burrrn over 50 times in the past 8 months or so and I've NEVER had a bad CD! Five Stars! Ahhh, what the hell - Ten Stars!

Good burning program compatible with xp x64

Interface: 5
Features: 4
Ease of use: 4
Value: 5
Overall:

This is the only freeware burning program I have found that successfully burns mp3s, oggs, flacs, and more into an audio cd format on Windows XP Pro x64. There are some better burning programs, but this one is simple and lightweight. I did notice that when I started a burn with no disc in the drive the program wasn't too happy, but it worked fine after I restarted the burn with a disc in the drive. Good free software and definitely worth a try.

Painless cd-text

Few CD burners support CD-TEXT and those that do expect you to enter the information manually. Burrrn gets the information from the audio files and does it all automatically. Apart from that, it's a very good, no frills audio CD burner - fast and free!

This program works like a clock, fast, effective and It's very easy to use. Hard to belive that It's freeware but I'm glad It is.

Can add more files than a cd can hold

Interface: 5
Features: 4
Ease of use: 5
Value: 5
Overall:

It would be nice if there was a bar or meter of some kind to inform the users when the cd is full. I tried to add over 200 mp3 files and got a fatal error. I thought that I could create an MP3 cd instead of an audio cd. A meter could be used to show how much cd space is being used and what is available to fill the cd. Other than that I think this is a very nice tool to use. I LOVE the price and the features are very good.

I had just downloaded a group of Audio CDs and discovered they were .ogg extension and I had no idea how to convert them. I did a Google search and discovered this site and Burrrn and converted and burned 5 CDs in about one hour. The only short coming seemed to be the audio gain function which seemed to add noise to the audio but that may have been my fault. I have never been so pleased with any software in such a short time and it is freeware.

Free burner with cue file support

Interface: 3
Features: 5
Ease of use: 5

Overall:

This was what I was looking for, a reliable CD-R burner that supported the .cue file format. After a DJ does a live set on the internet radio station I listen to, they release an .mp3 of the set with a .cue file specifically so you can burn a CD of their work. The only other programs that can do this that I've found are NERO and CDR-WIN, both pay to use software. For those of you that didn't get .cue support with your CD-R/W drive software, here is your solution.
