    Lol I always burn at 2.4x because I thought that was the norm, I knew some people burnt at 4x. Maybe I will start burning faster but whenever I have accidentaly had IMGBurn set to auto I have had problems with either burn fails or unplayable disc.

    I use the AOnes which are meant to be 8x, but I have to burn them at 4x for a good burn, anything above that and I end up with Dirty Disc Errors at some point.

    ive had issues with an older 360 when burning above 4x so I always use either 2.4 or 4x, it is a pain waiting for the disk at 2.4 though, i'll agree.

    I burn the Arita 2.4x@4x(pioneer 212/112) using Media code speed edit which let's you alter the firmware into thinking it's a different disc,must have burnt plenty at this speed with no issue's at all,Arita is all I buy at the moment.
