0.11.0 isn't unstable in a sense that it crashes a lot, it's just a  
development series as in several features are getting gutted & redone,  
reworked, thrown out, or added in.  Lots of cool stuff has already  
gone in, and lots more to come :)

Old fashioned as in you will need to find the files you want to burn  
to a data CD, and use nautilus cd burner to make a plain 'ol data CD.   
It's not much different than how Banshee would do it internally, but  
it's certainly not as convenient :)  Also, if you're looking for a  
MP3-only cd (like for a car stereo), you'll need to convert any tracks  
by hand.
