I'm merging this bug #484121 which already contains a discussion of gnome CD
burning tools. Notably:

  I realize that every gnome user has a different opinion about which CD
  burner to use, but my understanding, which is borne out by popcon, is
  that brasero is only relatively close to the top of the pack because it
  was the default in sarge. Tasksel used to use brasero, before it changed
  to gnomebaker. Excluding default installations, serpentine has gained a
  larger number of users in tasksel than any past gnome CD burning package.
  
  (The complete sad/funny history so far: bonfire -> brasero ->
  gnomebaker -> serpentine.)

Serpentine and nautilus-cd-burner are what the gnome team is recommending now;
I intend to follow them.
