Reference Player CD Recorder

$5.00
Reference Player is free, no trial clock, no subscription, no crippled player. The only paid feature is disc burning, and it costs about the same as buying the developer a coffee. We really, really like coffee. A one-time $5 unlock lets you create MP3 data discs, FLAC data discs, and true Red Book audio CDs, plus loudness-matched CDs with every track balanced together before the disc is burned (if you want), so it plays like a finished collection instead of one quiet song followed by another that blows the doors off. Your unlock covers one computer and is yours for good, no renewal, no recurring charge. Don't burn discs but love Reference Player anyway? Buy it anyway. You'll still unlock disc burning and you'll help keep independent software alive.
