Suggestions for DVD/CD writing software?

[Ben Bettin <bwbettin@gmail.com>]

Over the years one of the few things that has forced me to keep a
windows install handy was cd writing.  Recently I was finally able to
kick the M$ habit, after discovering the ease of Nautilus's data cd
creation in Gnome, but it doesn't do everything I'd like to do.

I could be wrong, but from what I can tell the built-in Nautilus cd
creator only does data cd's, you can't copy cd's with it?  I recently
purchased a dvd-writer because cd's arn't holding all of my stuff. 
Does the built-in Nautilus burner do data dvd disks?

If the Nautilus creator only does the creation of data cd/dvd's, I
need a simple way to copy cd's and dvd's.  I'd prefer not to have to
use the console.  I would definitly prefer a method which integrates
nicely into Gnome like the Nautilus one does.  What would you all
suggest?

I used Xcdroast a while back, it seemed a bit shaky and was a bit of a
pain to get working.  I've browsed around on google a bit for other
options, but there seem to be soo many choices and I'd rather find out
what you people think than try them all :)

I use Debian Testing (Sarge).

Thank you for your advice!
