I don't know about Nero, but with Easy CD Creater, you can choose the write speed.
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/14/2005 8:52:01 AM >>> But from what I understand about a program like Nero or the others I've tried, you don't get to choose the speed at which your CD gets written. I think it's just done at whatever speed the burn program defaults to and the CD drive is capable of, or something like that. Isn't this how it is? I'm sure I'm not understanding something. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Grady" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
