Well done :-)
by Stuart Longland on Friday 16/Mar/2007, @18:06
K3B is definitely a quality application. I've been using it for a long time myself, prior to that, I was using XCDRoast.

It integrates nicely into KDE applications, supports many features, and is reliable. I've never had a serious problem with it. It does exactly what I ask of it, every time.

If more applications were constructed in the same manner as K3B, the IT industry would look a lot better.

So true. K3B really has that *just works* quality. Recently, tried to burn a CD. So I do a rmb on a ISO file, to burn it. K3B turns up. Wait, I have no cd burner attached - so I grab an usb one, attach it - hit burn - and it just starts. No configuration or anything at all. Didn't even have to restart K3B... I don't remember if the burn dialog was already there and it immediately enabled the burn button, but at least it just showed up in the devices section and was usable.

I also used XCDRoast initially on linux and absolutely hated it (I'm sure it has improved since then as this was many years ago).

K3b has joined the group of high quality applications (along with kopete + kmail + firefox + amarok) that I use everyday.

Congratulations Sebastian and to the rest of the K3B team for a job well done.
