Is there anything for CD-R/RW on Mac other than
Toast or NeroMAX? NeroMAX is currently available
only bundled with some CD-R/RW drives. It's an
OK program but needs some more work, especially
with handling CD image files other than its own
format, which is not the same as Nero Burning ROM
for Windows.
I recently found out why NeroMAX is so different.
Ahead either bought or licensed B's Recorder then
revamped it. The only sites or info I can find
on B's Recorder are all in Japanese or other
asian languages. B's Recorder is/was available
for Windows too.
So other than those, anything?
The ideal Mac CD-R/RW app should be able to directly
mount ISO, Disk Copy, ShrinkWrap, NRG, WinImage,
HFV, you name the disk image it should be able to
mount it and fry it to a CD! Nero Burning ROM will
take _any_ file and burn it as raw data, you just
tell it a few specs and off it goes. It can even
burn Disk Copy images, even bootable ones, and
they work on a Mac. Heck it even burns straight from
any HFS partition (small enough to fit) on a SCSI
hard drive plugged into a PC. That is the versatility
missing from all the Mac CD-R/RW apps!
(Of course you can do silly things like burning a
JPEG or a program file as an "image". You'll get a
useless disc but at least on that program the authors
aren't making it dumb by trying to make it smarter
than the users!)
