Hi John, sizeme I did run across but was wanting a 'do everything for
me app' but installed that. Pretty functional while being simple. I
navigated to the folder I created and selected as the output. and was
able to right click and use the native win7 burner, it worked but for
some reason it seemed to be missing files in the output while
reporting what the actual size should be. Maybe it's me or my windows
install in the end.

cdcreate looks easy to burn cd/dvds, while organizing space to burn on-
the-fly, but it didn't recognize my dvd drive.

Not saying there is anything wrong with these software's, it is
definitely on my side somewhere.

Thanks for the suggestions.
