    Media are rated for maximum speed as well. I had one spindle of CD-Rs
    that were rated 16x; the next batch I bought were rated 48x. I've never
    achieved the rated speed on any of them when burning from Windows (Win2K
    in my case).

    I've played with Linux burner sw a little, but not enough to know if it
    does better at meeting the media's maximum speed.

    If you don't try to exceed the media speed you should be fine. I had
    some failures burning the 16x CD-Rs at 48x before I figured this out.
