Yesterday I made iTunes 1.1 on MacOS 8.6 compatible with my Ricoh MP6200S SCSI burner. The burner is connected to my Performa 6400. Also I made iTunes 2.04on MacOS 9.1 compatible with my Hewlett Packard 9210e SCSI burner. The burner is connected to my iMac Rev.B with a Formac SCSI-iProRaid/iProTV combocard. I didn't tested Disc Burner because for file's burning I do like Toast better. Also I installed CD Master (they actually made the Disc Burner application) and pulled out the Toast extensions from my Extension folder and putted in the CD Master ATA/SCSI driver, but that is'nt nessecary to let iTunes work with the CD Burner.
