110 After downgrading to a stable cdrtools, I don't have any failing media.
111 I have been using the same drive and media for quite a while tho. I
112 think I had the drive for a year or so and the media for about the same
113 time. I re-use the media since it is RW. Actually, I bought the media
114 when I bought the drive. I got them from newegg of course.
