Hello -- I'm new to the forum and joined because it's a great way to share and learn...

I'm trying to accomplish something we did in the "old days" ... making cassette tapes with our favorite tunes, only now using CD's. I'd like your help and ideas on how to do it simply!!!

Recently I bought and installed Sony CRX185E1 and finally got it installed on my home 366i2/400ix Intel Cleron processor machine, along with the B's Recorder GOLD s/w that came with it. (I set the original CD ROM (forgot what it is) to 'slave").

Anyway, having trouble with the recorder software... it's a pain and time consuming to use!

What software do you recommend? I thought the process is to copy audio CD to hard drive, then burn the CD's, right? Ideally, I'd like to be able to copy entire CD's (not all my collection!), with the software 'smart enough' to automatically insert album, title, genre, etc., then select tracks and order to burn them.

I've been referred to MusicMatch and CloneCD as alternatives...

I'd prefer to spend my evenings with family (rather than in front of the PC... that's a reason why I don't own a digital camera).

Thank you!
