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.
