Other people have offered sound suggestions about using cdrecord etc. under Cygwin. Just to make the point, though, XP (and above, presumably) does have an inbuilt interface for burning CDs. I've never used it, and I don't know how feasible it would be to access it from Python. (Helpful, eh?) The interface is ICDBurn and it should be possible to wrap it with ctypes / ctypes.com but I haven't the time at the moment to try it out. (And I haven't a CD writer in this machine either!) Ultimately, it might still be easier to install Cygwin and use the cdrecord approach. I just wanted to make the point that there *was* an in-built mechanism.
