Nero (shareware)
There is a very little we can say. In this moment Nero IS the program for CD Burning (but even DVD, VCD) and for eveything we need (audio, data, videos). Extremely easy to use, it entirely worths its 60$ (though with years the price of CD burner hardware decreases, of CD burner software increases...).

The version 7 has many problems with Audio CDs.
