Except that Toast chokes on almost all of the MP3s I own, all of which have been ripped with various versions of SoundJam.

If I want to make an audio CD I have to convert the MP3s to AIFF to ensure the CD is successful.

Even with this problem, I still much prefer SoundJam over iTunes, if only for the way the playlist sorting/display works.

SoundJam MP works flawlessly (built in feature) with Adaptec Toast 4.1(which
supports a wide range of burners and AppleScript also) to burn audio. CDs.

I don't totally disagree, but you're missing one very big feature -- the
ability to write directly to CDs (admittedly only with the new models).
