Depending on how you do it, it's very convenient to burn CDs with BeOS
- if only for the reason that you don't have to boot into Windows :-))
As a small teaser: I've copied my behaviour from stippi who has a "to
burn" folder on the desktop - whenever he wants to burn something he
creates links in that folder, and then runs a script that creates the
image. I'll then burn that image using Marcus' great CD-Manager
application :-)

Well, the one that comes with R5 just don't support multi-session disks
at all. And I *know* from the one I've written, that it has some
problems with some CDs - I happen to own such a thing :-)
(the AmigaOS 3.9 CD, if somebody cares :-))
Adios...
