You can take the time to read the following if you'd like:

http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html

Also, like others have mentioned you may also use growisofs, it works too.  I happily use cdrecord from cdrtools, the original.  I like Coke, the original.  You can drink Pepsi too, but there is nothing like the original.

Licensing is a sorry explanation or excuse for not using the original.  The other guys, like FreeBSD, Solaris/OpenSolaris, do use GPL programs with their CDDL licenses and FreeBSD Licenses and there are no problems.  No one has sued that I know of.  Except of course, Oracle and Google :)
