It compliments our range of applications such as our PC based call and radio logging application, VRS, because of the ability to archive an enormous amount of audio recordings on the one disk."
ExpressBurn v3.00 supports both single and duel layer disks with write and re-write capabilities (BD-R, BD-RE, BD-R DL, BD-RE DL) as well as Data HD-DVD, DVD and Audio/Data CDs. Using proprietary optimizing systems it is one of the fastest CD/DVD/Blu-ray writing programs in the world.
