Recommended CD/DVD Burner S/W


I'm after S/W for my FC5 box to burn downloaded CD and DVD ISO's to disk - something like Nero or Lite-On in the Win world. What do you recommend, and where do I get it?

TIA,
Jon

K3b all the way. As far as CD burners go its probably the best there is for Gnome or KDE.

I will have admit I use Gnomebaker myself when using Gnome so that can I avoid installing all of the KDE dependencies. I still think K3b is better though.

For .nrg there is nrg2iso. Then burn the .iso with whatever you want.

Just chiming in to say K3b definitely. It's the default installed with OpenSuse 10.2 and while I looked at others, always came back to K3b. It does everything and it does it well.
