[slinkelist] RE:CD Text

[Cunningham, Neil]

I've done some research on this and I highly suggest going with the Plextor
12x model ($399).  It supports cd-text and can burn a full cd in about 4-5
mins.  According to Adaptec's page they only support cd-text on one cdr (I
think a sony).

Don't just get any Plextor drive.  Do check the specs for each drive on
their web site http://www.plextor.com .  The drives that do support CD-text
tends to be more expensive too.

I'm running 4.02 of EZCD.  I also had to apply a firmware upgrade (1.02) to
my
Plextor PX-W4220T.  That's correct that the CD writer must support writing
CD-Text as well as the software.  Unfortunately, that information is not
easy
to find out.  It's typically not on the list of specs for a CD Drive.  My
advise, get a Plextor drive.

Regarding Nero vs EZCD, I've never tried Nero, but have heard that it was
excellent.  However, EZCD has given me no problems and does eveything I want
it
to do.
