Yep, that is the app size of the latest disc burning software for the Mac - Roxio Toast Titanium 10.
Seriously, WTF ??? Why all companies start to bloatware their apps. Nero on PC, Toast on Mac.

In general - yes, but it is due to universal binaries. Apps containing executables, libraries for both architectures i386 & ppc.
As for VLC it is actually smaller on a Mac than on PC. (nice surprise, didn't expect it  )
Sizes for whole package and not for executable.
VLC 0.9.8a
- Win : 60.0 MB
- Mac (universal binary) - 86.8 MB
- Mac (Intel only) - 51.4 MB
So, there is no excuse for the burning app to be 675MB(package size for the burning app only)  |

well toast comes with codec and shit no? I never used toast though. Tried it once and it had too many features. You can turn xvids to dvds. etc etc. rip dvds. you can get a shitload of tiny apps that will do all the work in quarter of the size.
