I used Roxio 7 to burn my CD's and DVD.  For some reason I am not sure
when I burned the CD's at 24x only 2 tested ok, I cut the write speed
down to 16x and all of them work, I didn't create CDs again for the
ones that passed at 24x.  I would have make them in Linux but I didn't
have the DVD burnner in my linux computer at the time.
