    Which is better? Active ISO Burner or CDBurnerXP? Or does it not matter? What are you experiences? I just want a very simple ISO burner.

    MagicISO. Does everything I have ever asked it, and it isn't limited to ISOs. Just be careful of checking certain "failsafes" they have before burning a disc, often times they would make the disk not be written on at all.

    While I've used neither of those two, I can vouch for Imgburn. It's done everything I've wanted it to and hasn't given me any trouble. It's also pretty simple to use.

    CDBurnerXP is doing fine for me. At the end of the day, you are the one that decides which is good for you. Try different apps.

    cheers ...

    For a basic ISO burner that works great - try BurnCDCC. Small exe file, nothing to install, simply double-click to start and follow the directions. Have used for about 3 years - have yet to make a coaster with it.
