by Mike Schramm (Jan 5th, 2009)

Toast is the granddaddy of CD burning apps nowadays, an act that itself has become relatively obsolete (between iPods, internet radios, FM tuners, and streaming services, do we even really need to put media on a physical format anymore?).

Lots of people emailed us about Disco, the new app from the folks behind AppZapper and MacZot and we didn't post about it. Why?
