I use CD Architect 5.0 by Sonic Foundry, I used to Use Wave Lave 4.0, but I still struggling to get it to recognize my stinking Plexiwriter USB burner...
Nero is ok, but for those used to Sound Forge go for Cd Architect. same features, nice and easy to browse in your computer while creating your session. My vote to CD architect for artistic projets, Nero for less important things.
