I've been using Adaptec CD-Creator which came with an external HP CD Writer plus (USB port believe it or not). Most of what I do is complilations from my CD's for travel purposes. I have been told that the media does make a difference, but have not put this to the test. Every time I burn an audio CD it is at 1x speed. The quality is very good, but not perfect. I have yet to ruin a disc--all have been made without failure.
