Windows XP and Vista both include disc-burning utilities but these are limited, and XP can’t even burn DVDs without additional software.

Of course there’s commercial software available to do the job but if you don’t want to spend a fortune on one big-name disc-creation application, what are your alternatives?

In this Workshop we’re going to look at CDBurnerXP, a free yet powerful disc-burning tool that can perform most of the tasks of its better known counterparts.

Whether you want to back up your data, create audio CDs or burn image files, CDBurnerXP includes all the tools that you will need to get started.
