Free CD Maker

Free CD Maker is a simple to understand and use software utility developed to help you burn as well as rip data from discs, be they CDs or DVDs, allowing you to manage your collection however you please.

Clear-cut and user-friendly looks

The application displays a neat and compact user interface, its main functions being grouped in a ribbon, each under corresponding buttons.
As such, you can easily create or open ISO images, add files or folders to them, even rip the contents of a disc to ISO format or extract existing images to your computer.

Rip or burn discs and create or extract ISO files

In order to build an ISO file, you need to load the data you wish to store in it, be it as individual items or in batch, a whole folder in one go. If certain objects are unnecessary, you can remove them using the dedicated button. The file can be saved to your computer for later usage.
At the same time, ISO files can be burnt onto discs, the program supporting both CDs and DVDs. After loading the image file, you simply need to select the preferred drive, then press the ‘Burn’ button.
Alternately, Free CD Maker allows you to extract the contents of an ISO file to your computer. You can also copy discs and save the data they comprise to ISO format on your PC, for instance for backup purposes or for easier access to your movie collection.

A simple disc burner and ripper

All in all, Free CD Maker proves to be a useful and effective application that can assist you in burning discs, as well as ripping their contents and saving them to ISO files. However, the lack of advanced features coupled with the occasional runtime error may have you thinking twice before working with it.
