Disc Burner isn't powerful enough for many of us, nor does it offer the important features that keep us getting Toast. For one, I need to be able to make bootable cd's, fast and easy. Toast does this in a snap, where DB cannot. With Toast you can skip the verification stage, you can't with DB (doubles your burn time).
Yes, you need to purchase Toast (this site doesn't support warez at all), but it is a worthy investment.
All in all, DB might be ok for the light user, but any of the power-users get Toast. It does the job, and does it very well. It can even write to dvd-rw disc's where DB cannot. Toast also handles cd-rw and multi-session burns very easily. 😛 😀

You can skip the verification process. Just cancel when it starts verifying. It will not harm the disc, for it has finished burning by then. It isn't any different than skip verification in TOAST. $.02
So what exactly is the advantage of Toast's "Write to DVD-Ram"? What more is it doing than if I simply dragged files onto the desktop DVD disc icon. I'm dying to know.

With Toast, you get the option right in the open... with DB, you don't.
Also, DB doesn't have the option to make bootable cd's, where Toast does (easily at that). THAT is a critical feature for me, since I make the bootable utility cd's for the entire N.E. tech support department where I work. 😛
