Express Burn 10.20

Express Burn 是 NCH Software 推出的光碟燒錄工具，主要用於快速建立和燒錄 CD、DVD，並透過直接數位錄製維持音質。它的特色在於燒錄前可為 DVD 加入章節，也能標準化音訊等級，並支援 WAV、MP3、FLAC、WMA 等多種音訊格式。這套軟體在光碟藍光類別中屬於小眾選擇，評分人數不多，但評價普遍不錯。不過，它的更新並不活躍，近一年沒有釋出新版本，可能已進入維護停滯期。

適合需要簡單燒錄光碟、且不要求中文介面的使用者，例如偶爾備份資料或製作音樂 CD 的人。與 DVD Shrink、Nero Burning ROM 等熱門替代軟體相比，Express Burn 功能較為精簡，但操作直覺，且檔案輕巧。要注意的是，它僅提供試用版，且僅支援英文介面，Windows 平台使用者需自行評估是否接受。若需要頻繁更新或完整功能，可能得考慮其他更活躍的燒錄方案。
