I'm not sure if this works for everyone, but I found that getting decent cds under
XP is as simple as dragging-and-dropping the files you want from your windows explorer
to a cd-burning-drive with a clean cd in it. If everything is compatible, windows
will automatically make the cd 'open session' read/write (i think the terminology
is correct) and burn everything on-the-fly.
Using the above method I have yet to burn a coaster. Perhaps it will work for you
too.
