Screenies look okay, but gtoaster and gnomebaker both display interfaces
that are immediately more intuitive.  Drop files, drop audio tracks,
select CD, burn.  Everything you need-- file browser and controls-- are
right there in front of you.

Alright, yes.  This is very nice.  The roadmap is interesting -- Mixed
mode creation (gtoaster does this, one reason why I like it) and video
CD creation (don't think gtoaster does this).  The current set of
features is OK, but the future expectations are great.

Bleh.  Data/audio, and the interface on the screenshots look somewhat
kludgy.  Anything with an "Add Files" or "Add Tracks" button is
immediately bad.  CD authoring is like file managment, which means you
operate with two file browsers:  the source and the destination.  It's
intuitive that way.

WHOA!!!!!!!!

No.  This is definitely complete, I love it, my mom will hate it.  This
one looks like a complete suite, but it makes no effort to separate out
the preferences into an advanced setting.

Do you see this?  I can do it.  You can do it.  Your mom can't do it.

This poses a dilema.  I want this, but I don't know if it's wise to
actually go ahead with this for main.  It also has the "Add Files" thing
going on -.-

Good.

I'm going to personally say Gnomebaker, but keep eroaster around in
universe . . . .  My opinions don't matter of course.  :)
