This is probably a Non-Issue, but it has crossed my mind a few times.

Does anyone use a dedicated CD-R Audio Drive, for burning Masters, that's NOT a DVD-R drive ? My instincts tell me that a drive & laser that's optimized for CD-R, not DVD-R would be better. Is this just "old school" stubbornness & superstition? ... as usual, guilty as charged !

I normally use the Yamaha CD F1 drives that came out a couple years ago, supposed to be the "tits" of Yamaha's 10+ year history of making CD burners. They do great burns, with a full set of PQ Codes.

I know a lot of ME's love the Plextors as well.

However, I have had no problems using the internal "Superdrive" in my G4's.

I assume if the discs check fine on Plextools... it's not an issue.
