Burn
Burn is a free, open-source CD and DVD burning application for Mac that allows users to create data discs, audio CDs, and burn ISO images to physical media. Originally developed by KiwifruitSoftware, it provides a simple interface for disc burning tasks that were once handled by older versions of Mac's Disk Utility. The app supports various disc formats and filesystems, making it useful for creating discs that can be shared across different operating systems. While optical disc usage has declined significantly, Burn remains relevant for users who need to create physical backups, distribute software, or work with legacy systems that require CD/DVD media.

You can download the updated version from the official SourceForge page. This newer version should run natively on Apple Silicon Macs without requiring Rosetta 2. The app remains free and open-source, so upgrading should be straightforward - just download and replace your current installation.
