Disco – Hands-down the best disc burning application for Mac OS X Leopard!

The folks over at madebysofa have built the best disc burning app that I’ve seen for for Mac OS X Leopard by far. It’s so innovative and simple is hard to believe no one has thought of it before. I downloaded a trial here, then after burning two discs, I bought it. 

Let’s start with the interface. Super clean + sexy. Black with white type with great icons and animations. For example, once you begin burning a disc, animated smoke flows out the top of the window. You can even set a preference so that you can blow into your microphone and affect the smoke. Little touches like that make Disco fun to use.

There is even an option to pull up an “Index” window which keeps a record of all of the discs you’ve burned and allows full search capabilities. Usually a secondary program is required.

Disco also includes “Spanning” which automatically divides files that are too big for one disc and would “span” across several discs. With Disco you can create a disc image from a set group of files. For you laptop burners, it can even detect physical motion to prevent coasters.

With a price of only $29.95, it’s well worth the effort. You will not be disappointed.
