I wont be trying it anywhere until I see the source code and agree it 
wont damage anything.  At least with cdrecord I can tweak it to my 
liking and my own device driver works much closer with my own hardware.

Forgive me for saying but I think until source code is visible the list 
isnt interested in propietary crap.  Isnt that why we all use Linux and 
not Windows in the first place. ??
