Best disc burner for Linux

[Kingfisher]

Hi
I have installed Ubuntu on my computer. It very good and I like the operating system. I think is the most user friendly operating system in all flavors. I want to know which is the best disc burner for linux. For backing-up data I use CD's, When I move to other places I take all the songs and movies with me. So disc writer is must for me. So, which disc burner contains maximum features. Any advice or suggestions.

Here are some of the Disc Burner for linux based operating system
1) Brasero - It handles rewritable media and can burn ISO, CUE, RAW and TOC image files. Brasero can write an ISO image for you to burn to the disc later. Brasero is more than a Disc Burner, it can also simulate the burning process to test your setup and settings.
2) X-CD-Roast - it is popular for its audio CD ripping abilities. You can just drag and drop tracks into X-CD-Roast. It can also write and copy data to CDs and DVDs as well as mixed-mode and audio CDs.
3) GnomeBaker - It can work with dual-layer DVD's and can copy data and audio CDs on the fly. GnomeBaker can write an ISO image for you to burn to the disc later. It also has the dummy write option to simulate the burning process.
4) K3b - it burns and copies all kinds of single / multi-session DVD's and CD's. It can also encode MP3 and OGG into high quality WAV format. It can provide a great video DVD. It can rip your audio CD's. K3b's strength lies in its plugin's. For every work a dedicated tool / plugin is provided.
I like K3b the most. It has all the features via plugin's. But you can use any one of them and enjoy disc burning.

Other than the above mentioned disc burner there are some more you can try
1) Gear Pro - it supports all sorts of CD/DVD burning media. You can create CD/DVD in couple of click's . Can simulate the burning process and test media for its speed. It can create multisession discs.
2) Nero Linux 3 -Its main features are the support for Blu-ray and HD DVD media. It can transcode files into FLAC, MP3, MP4, WAV and OGG. It comes with an ultra buffer feature. It encodes MP3 and OGG files into high quality WAV format for audio CDs.
