cdrtools (formerly known as cdrecord) is a collection of independent projects of free software/open source computer programs for CD and DVD authoring.

The project was maintained for over two decades by Jörg Schilling, who died on October 10, 2021.[3][4]

Because of some licensing issues,[5] there is also a Debian fork of an older version of cdrtools called cdrkit.
