K3b (for KDE) seems pretty good and powerful, as long as you have all
the extra codecs installed. Depending on your stance, and your distro's
stance, you may need to violate some patents as per usual with media.

If you use Gnome, take a look at Brasero. I've used it minimally, so I
couldn't tell you the about flexibility or format support.

You can also compute track times yourself, just remember that for a
normal CD, you will have a 2-second pre-gap for every track, and modern
CDs are 80m. I've been successful overburning up to 85m, but that's a
stretch. Basically, don't worry about a few seconds. Sox is a good
all-around utility that you can use to convert your intended media to
WAV, and from there you could even drive the burning tools yourself
(wodim, cdrecord, etc)
