I've tried all the big names. Easy CD Creator, Nero Burning Rom, and even the yucky software that came with my CDRW, HP Writer. I bought Click'n Burn a few weeks ago, and have since deleted all the other software off my system.

Click'n Burn is way faster at burning cd's than any of the others ( and buries Adaptec ). It's got a great interface and is very user friendly. It's got the "wizard" so you can copy a cd with a click of a button, or use the full application.

This also came with a CD Stomper and label creation software, as well as a few labels.

I truly believe this is the best burning software out there!

When I installed Windows Me on my computer, I found out that the CD-RW software that came with my computer didn't work with Windows Me.

I found out that the latest version of Adaptec/Roxio's Easy CD Creator (ECDC) is compatible with Me, IF you download the patch. I was considering buying ECDC, but read some of the unflattering reviews of it here...

Instead, I got Click 'n Burn for a LOT cheaper, and it's compatible with Windows Me right out of the box. It also seems a lot easier to use than ECDC, and comes with a great utility for printing CD labels.

I would also add that Click 'n Burn takes up far less hard drive space, and burns CDs considerably faster than ECDC.

Overall, a much more efficient product.

Was a satisfied user of Adaptec's Easy CD Creator 3.5b, wanted .mp3 support. Came that close to buying ECDC Deluxe 4.0 during a rare price drop to $50 with rebate, but got spooked by lots of scary reviews on this site detailing major system attacks and low product support from Adaptec/Roxio. Also had previously purchased Adaptec's Soundstream and was dissatisfied with low functionality. Got CnB Pro 1.5 for the same 50 bones (er...from Outpost.com) based on favorable reviews on this site. Installed in 2secs with no trouble (WinMe on AMD K6-2, HP 8210e CDRW), ran the tests on my drives (very informative), set up a Audio CD job using multiple sources (.mp3, .wav, multiple Audio CDs). Very straightforward, no quirks. Documentation (manual) is comprehensive and detailed; good plaintalk explanation of CD-R lingo. Simple startup menu for novices and quick simple job setup; plenty of advanced functionality in the full application, but only if you want it. Comes with complete version of CD Stomper label making software (with label applicator and blank labels), which I haven't used yet. Checked out the website - very useable, downloaded a $10 rebate (nice surprised!) and a current update to CnB Pro 1.5 (24Jan01, someone must still be there). Doesn't have CDDB audio CD recognition interface, a negative but not a dealbuster. Extracts audio from CDs, but only to .wav - no .mp3 compression. Wouldn't run the recorder self-test on my CDRW, maybe because it's USB. Bottom line: All the functionality you need to burn and label any kind of CD without all the extra frills and - more importantly - all the hassles.

Beleive all the good things written about this product! I had several problems with the bundled software that came with my HP CD Writer (8220E with "My CD" and "Direct CD" software). I have a Compaq laptop with a 475mhz AMD processor, not exactly the greatest, but more than sufficient for my needs. The bundled software had a 50/50 chance of making a usable CD, errors regarding 'defective CD' kept popping up in the middle of the burn destroying the disc. Tried receiving support through HP and like everyone else says, no help at all. I even borrowed a friends Adaptec CD Creator and was disappointed with the software-just too much ... and I still made coasters!! Finally read all the good things about "Click and Burn Pro" and decided to buy it. AWESOME, have not made a coaster yet in the 2 weeks I've used it to burn copies of CD's, mixed CD's, and data CD's. The interface is very easy to use and the software configures your write speed for best results (you could also set everything manually to customize your way). You will not be disappointed with this product. The only downside is that if you let the sofware configure your write speed it bumps it down causing longer burns, but like I said NO COASTERS!!! Also comes with a stomper and CD labeler software that's just as easy to use.

This has to be the easiest and best featured MP3 program I have tried. After trying the Data Becker MP3 "Trash Your Computer" Wizard, I was very hesitant to try anything else. But I did try several. Some programs were ok, but none compared to this one. Ease of use, excellent features and affordability makes this a great buy for me. I highly recommend Click'n Burn for novices and more experienced users alike. Way to go Stomp!

I was VERY dissapointed with this product. Every CD I tried to burn had a coaster or failed withought a warning on my computer. I have used other bad products before, so I bought this one hoping it would be better than the others.. but I was heavily dissapointed. Never judge a book by it's cover.. or in this case, never judge a BURNER by it's name. I have done the burning process many times before this, and I was shocked at how easy it was at first, but then during the copying of my files and other complications of CD's, I was shocked by how my computers responded to the product. I think that you should spend your money on something worth the dough... and not something that could be better.

This program works ok most of the time on versions of

Windows prior to XP. With XP Home SP2 the program will

not run at all reporting Runtime Error 9. If there is

any support for Click'N Burn I have not been able to

find it using Google searches. I.E. buy and you are on

your own.

I have found my Click 'n Burn Pro easier to use than either Easy CD Creator or Nero 6. I also had the failed-burn CD-coaster problem at first, but I found that the product has additional choices for the burn process, which allow the caching of files. Ever since I've cached the files, whether audio or data, I've never had a failed burn. The main opening screen needs to be accessed, and one of the icons allows "options," which will allow the caching.

My only reservation -- which I hope will be addressed by the newest version -- is that the product doesn't seem to handle CD-RW disks, allowing the copying of individual files using Windows Explorer. In this area, Easy CD Creator and Nero 6 seem superior -- especially the latter, since ECDC has never listed my external Sony CD-R(W) drive as supported, in contrast to Nero 6.

I bought the Click'n Burn 1.5 and it is so cool you can burn cd's in no time!!!!! i'm going to buy the new version for my cuzin for his graduation he will love it!!! So will you if you buy this product. You won't need to bother your friend anymore to burn cd's for you, because you will have the totaly AWSOME Click'n Burn 1.5!!!
