Burn or toast, freeware dvd burning OSX

When it comes to burning disks under osx leopard, there are not too many options. It's the build in file burner, or the program toast. However toast is not all that great and as usual with most mac products, it costs money. Spending money for a burning tool is something you can easy avoid, as there is the aptly named "Burn" application that is quick and simple. Burn burns the following formats :
  • Data disks : hfs+ (mac), jolliet (pc), udf, hfs+jolliet, dvd-video
  • Audio disks : Audio cd, mp3 disk
  • Video disks : vcd, svcd, dvd, divx with on the fly conversion
  • Disk images : img, dmg, cdr, toast, iso, cue/bin, toc
  • Disk copy : Everything but audio cd
Burn has a simple 1 screen userinterface and is very easy to use, in true apple style. All this as open source freeware. So drop your toast and burn baby !
