Leopard accepts all DVD burners as supported.

Not so for Tiger and Panther, which require PathBurn for support of  
non-Apple-shipped drives.

By the time Apple shipped Leopard, it was supporting Pioneer drives,  
such as DVR-109, DVR-110 and DVR-111, which required PatchBurn under  
earlier MacOSes.

I now buy mainly Lite-On LightScribe SATA drives, or, more recently,  
Samsung LightScribe SATA drives, even though I never use LightScribe  
media. Neither require any special support under Leo.

Under Leo, both of these will say: Burn Support (Yes, Generic Drive  
Support).

Of course, the "usual suspect" applications already support those  
drives.
