Media are rated for maximum speed as well.  I had one spindle of CD-Rs 
that were rated 16x; the next batch I bought were rated 48x.  I've never 
achieved the rated speed on any of them when burning from Windows (Win2K 
in my case).

I've played with Linux burner sw a little, but not enough to know if it 
does better at meeting the media's maximum speed.

If you don't try to exceed the media speed you should be fine.  I had 
some failures burning the 16x CD-Rs at 48x before I figured this out.
