Cd drives (reading or writing) speed up as they move away from the center of the disc there chief. Your argument holds no truth. Perhaps if you buys your electronics at walgreens... you might have a problem. If writing to a disc faster made it less readable then they would not continue to increase the write speeds. What you said about bits being lighter at faster speeds is true, but to a millionth of a fraction of a difference... not nearly enough to effect it being read properly. If you have problems burning cds I would suggest investing in some quality hardware.

...some informal testing with the venerable Yamaha CDR-100 determined that it worked best at 4x speed with media certified for 4x writes. 1x worked almost as well, but 2x would occasionally produce discs with unrecoverable errors...


... It's entirely possible that writing slowly to "high-speed" media will produce significantly worse results than writing to it quickly...


...With some recorders and some media, it's actually better to write faster...

The CDR/Ws have more to do with things than the burner (which I'm assuming you are talking about). But the most important factor is knowing what the heck you are doing. 90% of the computers I fix were troubled as a result of user error.
