When it was finally possible to not only read but also burn CD-ROMs on the Atari, this was big news. In the meantime, memory cards and the Internet have made the CD almost superfluous, but if you still want to burn CDs on the Atari, you can do so with the recently released CD Writer Suite 4 from Anodyne Software, which is available as freeware. The suite consists of the three programs CDwriter (audio CDs), CDbackup (backups to data CDs and DVDs) and CD InScriptOr (burning standard ISO9660 CDs and DVDs). On 68030 systems, media is burned at quadruple speed, on 68000 systems at double speed. If the hardware supports it, the burning process can be simulated beforehand. CD Writer Suite supports many SCSI3/MMC CD and DVD recorders, there is a list of compatible devices on the website. To run it, you will also need ExtenDOS 4, which was released as freeware last year and also offers an audio CD player.
The release of the source code is planned at a later date.
