David, It's probably not the writer or the media — as I mentioned in another thread, your Mitsumi players are a probable culprit. There has been a lot of discussion recently about the fact that many CDROM player manufacturers play fast & loose with the standards… in fact, some people say there aren't any standards that apply to players (but I don't believe that.) The standards that do exist are a bit ambiguous, however, and CD-R puts more stress on them than replicated discs perhaps, so you need a better quality drive that is known to work well with that (physical) format. Toshiba & Plextor are getting high marks currently. Kathy The One-Off CD Shops
