The pinnacle of the Delicious Generation ™. Cult app … In a bad way, like E.T. on Atari 2600.

Works flawlessly on Yosemite (last edition). Will probably on El Capitan too. If you use this be sure to plug in your burner first - otherwise Disco will crash. This can span large amounts of stuff across multiple CDs or DVS and I think no other app can do this. cubanpete gives absolute stellar maximum of 6 stars ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪

Great, beautiful software with really nice "burning documents" animation (which can also be switched off). You can dispell the smoke by blowing! "You can even blow into your microphone and the smoke will react accordingly. " Best thing is that disco can span disks. So if you have lots of stuff to burn that will not fit on a single disk, disco will do all the calculations for you to properly fill the disks to the brim. "If Disco detects the total size of the files you're burning is bigger than the disc, it will try to divide them amongst multiple discs so that they fit. " It can also keep a record of the contents of your burned disks. Wow. "You can instantly search through tens of thousands of burned files and find out info such as when it was burned, to what disc it was burned, and when it was last edited. " I'm glad this still works as of Aug 2015 on ML 10.8.5. It's such a timesaver and it never ruined a disk. However, it can crash. If it won't start at all, delete it with App Cleaner, then reinstall. If it still won't start, run a different burning app, then run disco. That helped me. It's fine now. Wish the developer would release this so disco won't die! It's too good to die. Please... But thanks for making it free.

I love and have used Disco for year. Now I am very sad they are not continuing to develop this app. They are now offering a free username and password on their website. I am using the app under Snow Leopard and occasionally it will crash. I wish the developer would release the source code so that the mac community can continue to update the app. I cannot find anything that even comes close to it except for Toast. And that takes a huge step away from the simplicity. And I am not quite ready to dish out the cash for Toast.

Just found this official note on developers website: "As of July 2011 development and support of Disco have been officially discontinued. Disco will remain downloadable by any one who wishes to use it." They also made available free license there, but it seems this license does not work (at least it was so in my case).
