Thanx for the heads up Luke. This to me is indeed crappy news as I feel gcdmaster is a powerful tool for artists to create audio CDs. If you haven't tried it, you must. What other app has the same functionality? Should we at least start a new effort? "GTKCDmaster"? Maybe we start a project to make a replacement app? Start off by going through its UI noting what works/doesnt. I'm sure we can get a good plan going. We'd just need a coder.
