Looking for a good CD/DVD burning utility, but short on cash? Yesterday we mentioned that CDBurnerXP had been updated to include Blu-Ray and HD-DVD support among other things. And in the comments one reader pointed out another excellent (and free) disc burner.InfraRecorder is an open source utility that doesn't skimp on features or accessibility. Once installed, you'll notice you can either launch InfraRecorder or InfraExpress. The latter version features a slimmed down interface with wizards for burning data, audio, and video discs.

- Scan SCSI/IDE bus for devices and capabilities
- Create disc copies using temporary disc image
- Import session data from multi-session discs and add more sessions
