Quick-Burn

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffNovember 8, 2008Although its feature set is far from exhaustive, this space-conscious application makes burning audio CDs a quick and painless affair. Quick-Burn's self-explanatory interface is one of its strong points. Not only does the app let you add MP3s or WAVs to a project via drag-and-drop transfers, it also provides more than 15 skins for customizing its appearance. The program demonstrated decent speed in our tests, especially when set to its maximum burn setting of 32X. However, apart from its one job, this utility doesn't really do anything else. For instance it can't burn data CDs, copy one disc from another, erase CDs, or rip tracks. Still, unlike many burning apps we've seen, Quick-Burn offers a generous demo, letting you create as many audio CDs as you want for a full 30 days. Some competing products may provide a wider range of functionality, but novice users seeking a no-nonsense tool for making audio mixes surely should put Quick-Burn on their lists.
