I’ve always been a little frustrated with burning CDs or DVDs on my Mac, as it’s never been the simplest process…especially DVDs. With the slow migration away from physical media, the need to address this issue doesn’t really make the cut with Apple. I understand that physical media is on the decline, but I still use CDs and DVDs on a fairly regular basis, as I’m sure others do as well.
I came across a brilliantly simple application recently, and I’ve been using it for all my CD/DVD burning needs ever since. The name of the application is Burn, and it’s as simple to use as it sounds. Need to burn an audio CD? Drag the desired song files into the application, arrange them in whatever order you’d like, insert a CD-R, and click Burn.
It’s the same idea with a DVD. Any time I’ve wanted to burn a DVD, it’s pretty much the same reason each time: To get the video onto a DVD-R so that it can be played in a DVD player. That’s it. I don’t need a menu or fancy graphics. Burn does just that, and I love it.
Download Burn here, and enjoy disc-burning simplicity at its finest.
