Best VCD/DVD Authoring/Editing Software?

[Muse]

Hello. I need help on something - opinions needed please.

What do you think is the best software out there for creating VCDs with MPEG files using a CD-RW drive? I've been using Roxio Media Creator 7.5. Now I come to find out that they just released version 8.0, but I have a stability problem during the burning process.

I've looked at other software out there...but I'm not sure which one has the features I'm looking for -

Nero, Pinnacle, Ulead, or Adobe? Or other?

Thanks in advance ~

Adobe costs too much for what you get IMO..

Ulead is ok I guess, but I haven't had much luck w/ their products (too newbie oriented to give me the control I want)

I've heard good stuffs about Pinnacle though..

I had evaluated like almost a dozen different DVD/VCD applications about a year or so ago... none of them quite fit everything what I wanted to do though..
