This is a stupid discussion.  This post wasn't criticism, it was a
demand that someone write an easy to use, GUI based DVD burn program.

My opinion, Isaac has given me something for free.  Hell, I've sent
him email on two seperate occasions in the past offering $50 as a
Thank-you  w/ no strings attached, and never heard back from him.  He
wants nothing from me and is getting nothing from me.  If he isn't
getting anything from me, I have absolutely no right to demand that a
feature be added.

It is rude to ask that someone sacrifice thier time and effort if you
aren't willing to do sacrifice the same.
