Since Nero Burning ROM 6.6.1.4 doesn't support Win7, I'm looking for an alternative. Anyone having any experience with BurnAware Free? The interface is OK, and it doesn't seems to be a bloatware / adware but is it any good? Is it reliable?
You can try other utilities also; eventually pick the one you enjoy working with the most. Googling burning software for Windows 7 returns many free and pay-for choices.

ImgBurn is a nice alternative too, I used it before fully migrating to USB sticks and HD's, it's quite reliabe and has many options, even for music CD's.
