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.

If you want to burn a cd at 52x and your burner is rated at 52x than
you
need 52x rated cdr's although there is no reason you couldn't buy
slower
rated cdr's and burn slower.

I've been cruising sites like amazon.com, best buy and others, and
see
that
there's an enormous variety of blank cd/r products out there. I
understand
the importance of most of the specifications of a CD, such as its
capacity.
But what about the write speed? I'm pretty sure my CD/DVD drive is
rated
at
a maximum wwrite speed of 52x, but does this mean I'm short-changing
myself
or inconveniencing myself in some way (or even burdening my system
or
burning program in some way) if I don't get discs of the fastest
speed?
Does it particularly matter? If I don't use 52x, is it as if I'll
have to
sit there all day waiting for one CD to finish being recorded? Why
are
there so *many* different write speeds? What were they all intended
for?
1x, 4x, 16x, 32x, 48x, 52x-- what's all this about? Does anyone
understand
how there came to be so many types at this point, and what's best to
buy?
Thanks.

I think I got a spindle of 50 CD's. I'm not sure exactly how many
of
those
are left. I guess you can probably get around 50 for between $10 and
$20

Hi,
I just go to Walmart and buy memorex or max l or whatever
name
brand is on sale. I buy them in a spindle of fifty, generally,
though
sometimes a spindle of 100 is really cheap. I have found that
so-called
music cd's are no better than straight write once read many type
cd's,
though they generally cost a bit more. Money for r i a a, I
suppose.
Hope this helps.

At 12:27 AM 6/13/2005, Yardbird spake thusly:-
I've begun creating CDs for friends by both copying my own music CDS
and
also by creating compilations from music files on my hard drive.
While
learning, I've used a few blank CD/Rs graciously donated by a
friend.
Now
I'd like to get myself a modest supply to keep on hand, and I'd love
to
hear
recommendations. I just did a search on Amazon and realize that
there
are
a
lot of brands to choose from, in different quantities, with or
without
jewel
boxes. It's a bit overwhelming. I just want to find something like
a
25-pack of good quality discs that I can depend on for quality and
durability.
Also, I'd like to know where to find those slim-line jewel boxes
that
most
people I I know use for CDs they make themselves.
Here's the model of the CD-ROM drive/recorder in my Dell PC. I'm
under
the
impression that the write speed is 52x, but if anyone knows
differently,
please say.
thanks a lot. Here's my recorder model, courtesy of Belarc
