Doing this in iTunes is too complicated so I managed to do it via the 
finder. But I wonder what professionals are using.

That's why the professionals are using it.

A "professional" who uses something solely because it costs money
is not smart enough to remain a "professional" for very long.

On Macs or in general?

To start with the general... Professional manufacturers of mp3 discs=20
donot burn discs. They make a 'Master Disc' and send it to a=20
professional manufacturer where they use the pressing method like used=20
with music CDs.

Smaller producers and companies mostly use either 'Nero' or 'Roxio Easy=20
Media Creator' on the Windows platform and 'Roxio Toast Titanium' on the =

Mac. - I always use Nero on windows and Toast on the Mac. It's the=20
easiest way to make the job done. - Select 'Mp3 Disc', drag the folders=20
to the main window and select 'Burn'. Do remember to add a prefix to a=20
folder, if you want them to be played in a specific order - for example=20
'01', '02', '03' etc...

And I use iTunes.  It's the easiest way.
Select, click, go get coffee.

That's silly. The best applications are usually _not_ open source. I 
can't think of a free substitute for Final Cut Pro, or for Photoshop 
(and puhlease, don't trot the Gimp out; it's well-named, though). I keep 
ffmpeg around because it's a powerful transcoding tool, and Jubler does 
pretty good subtitles, but those are adjuncts to the "professional" 
stuff I paid for.

Toast isn't necessary for burning CDs. You can do it from the command 
line.

Not if you - like I do - make 'books' in mp3 format with additional text =

files or broadcast compilations with documental texts added...

That's not what he said.  He was talking about somebody who chooses 
paid software over free simply *because* it costs money, not because of 
any additional features.

An example is third party commercial software used to file tax returns.  
All of them cost money, and they don't do anything that I can't do 
myself with a pencil and a calculator.  Using the old fashioned method I 
have it done in less time and with less hassle than with any of the 
"modern, better" electronic filing methods, and all I pay is the cost of 
a postage stamp.

You must have a very simple return.

Personally, I use an on-line tax service for free form completion and 
filing.  Most people who made $57,000 or less last year can do so.  This 
comes to at least 80% of all taxpayers.

He's also doing Canadian Taxes.  Not the same as ours.  No AMT, no 
capital gains from short selling an underwater house, no medical bills 
to deduct, etc.

Must be hard keeping your neck a constant state of extension so that 
your nose is in the air all time.  But then you get massage therapy as 
part of the medical coverage.  

And someone does your laundry for you if you're sick.  No wait.  That's 
France.

Maybe they're better than they used to be.
The ones I tried expected me to copy employer name, address, T>I>N>, and 
all sorts of other stuff from the W-2.

And TurboTax, well, .... never mind, I'll be family-friendly.

    A UNIX signature isn't a return address, it's the ASCII equivalent
    of a black velvet clown painting.  It's a rectangle of carets
    surrounding a quote from a literary giant of weeniedom like
    Heinlein or Dr. Who.

Many of them now let you download the W2 directly from the employer, for 
those employers who are plugged into that system.

Was all of that supposed to be a joke?  Or do you really believe that?
