<br></div>Currently on my Windows partition, I've got a Free app called InfraRecorder (<a href="http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/">http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/</a>). This is exactly the kind of thing that I'd like Xfburn to become. It handles all of the things you'd like to use a CD/DVD burner for, has a clean, minimal interface (even uses the Tango icons) and isn't burdened with the superfluous features that other burners tend to integrate (audio ripping, etc). The installer only weighs in at a
2.56 MB too. I recommend anyone with a Windows partition/machine to take a look at it.<br>
