[Bug 529696] Re: brasero can't copy audio cd (useless error message)

In terms of Ubuntu's commitment to providing as good a release as reasonably possible, this bug in particular is very disappointing. To read the words 'hopefully' and 'maverick' when considering a bug which affects a major component of the Ubuntu desktop (something that is part of the user experience, part of the OS itself, as brasero is very much weaved in as 'inbuilt functionality of Ubuntu') is a bit of a shock. 
For those who can get around this, the more clever 'users' who can choose another alternative application to provide the same functionality (such as k3b) things are, while not nice, doable. There is a work around for us. 
However, I have set up Ubuntu on the computer of my mother. This is hardly the kind of situation that some potential users can 'survive' with. I'd imagine there are many other such cases, and a bug like this, more than many other kinds of bugs, prevents the wider up-take of the OS. Considering the idea of Ubuntu 'just working' ... this particular bug breaks Ubuntu. It is one thing an application like Gimp having a bug, as it is not a major part of 'the user experience'. But Brasero?

There should be more importance in fixing bugs like this. Where is
shuttleworth? This is not just a papercut, it is a bit deeper.
