I'm aware of at least one HP burner that does support CD-Text, so bottom
line, do some research first.

Just to throw my $.02, I find Nero to be the best all around burner that
I've tried. Since I've started using it, I've only produced 1 coaster in
about 300 burns. Also, there are very few recorders that will write CD-Text.
Plextor and SONY are two that I'm aware of. HP's and SAF will not.

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.
