This problem sounds familiar. I did not get any media errors personally 
with any of the discs. Did you try the hdd=nodma or whatever the option 
to turn off dma for the CDROM might be?

I did have mediacheck problems on an old Toshiba laptop a long time ago. 
There were not any media errors on the computer that I burned the discs 
on, but the discs still seemed muddied. This was back on RHL8.0 to 
Phoebe. These problems don't seem to be around any longer.

What method are you using to burn the CDs. I burned mine from nautilus 
with the highlight iso file, then right click and choose write to CD. I 
used the CDs on about 5 real computers and one virtual computer.
