I believe it's primarily a burner compatibility issue. I have several High Speed CD-RWs and all of my drives refuse to burn them at less than 8x. Some of my drives that are 8x compatible (or so I thought) can't burn these. For players, I don't believe there's any difference in a high speed versus non-high speed but can't be certain. -- -Gene -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
