Quite humorus. I remember the last time with the step up in write speed from 4x to 8x and folks stocking up on 4x discs.
Maybe it is just me, but I suspect that at faster write speeds, the laser has less time for that beam to perform a burn per block, hence less footprint on the disc, hence potential loss of that written data block over time. I usually burn at 4 x regardless unless the disc is a slower speed disc, never had any burps or gaps or glitches on any disc I burn at 4x. But did find that burning at 8x on 8x discs, more often than not, and on various media, playback would glitch, skip, burp, stop, etc.
Time to stock up on 8x discs!Comment
