I feel Nero for Linux sucks miserably. K3b is way better.

Huh. There are far more better tools for CD writing than nero.

When I tried it, you could use your nero serial key from windows.
Back then the features weren't so good.
The interface was pathetic. And like trademark nero, it was a big bloat and I guess it will still be the same.
Again, it doesn't use mkisofs which all open source apps use.
I've heard it has/will soon have capability to write to HD-DVD/BlueRay Disks which you won't soon find in any open source softwares cos of the restrictions placed by the manufacturers of two.

Gnomebaker is good but the version I use has no support for afterburn (they say it will be included in the future version):(
