I use itunes to burn cds, but what if I want to burn some data files?
I dont feel like paying $80 for toast, is there a free one out there?
maybe leapord will have one built in

You can use finder. Just make a burn folder, transfer the things you want to burn and click burn. When you transfer data to that folder it only transfers an alias (or shortcut) but when you burn it it transfers the file or folder that the alias is pointing to.

Additionally you can download an app called Burn - its free by the way
