Applications with Disk Burning support

Finder

Insert a CD or DVD, and it'll show up on the desktop. Copy files to the disk (this takes a while, since it actually copies the files to a disk image) and drag it to the trash can, which turns into a "Burn" icon.

iTunes

With iTunes you can burn Playlists as Music CDs, MP3 CDs (for portable MP3 CD players) or data CDs containing mp3 files.

Tips and Tricks

[edit]

Burning a VIDEO_TS folder

Drag and drop your VIDEO_TS folder onto DVD Imager, tell it to create a UDF disk image, and burn the resulting image with Disk Utility.

[edit]

Converting DMG to ISO files

Run Damage Isolation, and drag whatever dmg you want to make an iso file out of onto its dock icon. By default, it'll create the new file in the same folder as the original one.
