What programs and what speeds do you use to burn music CDs for the stock headunit in the KJ?

I've had no problems burning at any speed (up to my burner's max speed of 24x) on high-quality CDs that are designated as "Music" CDs (I use TDK). When I burn to cheap, generic discs, I have to burn at 8x, and even then they don't last long.

I've used MS Media Player and Nero, with the same results, AFAIK.

Same here, no problems with nero and direct copy of cds at max speed of the burner (its a 48x burner, but it never reaches those speeds).

Myke, use a marker and try and stay away from the sticker labels. If they heat up the sticker can peel and get stuck.

In the manual it says to not play burnt cd's and my dealer (and some other folks too) gave them a hard time when my player kept dying. It'd die on bought cd's also, but they wanted to put the blame for the failure on the burnt ones. I got it replaced under warranty and it probably would have died no matter what, but it does say not to. Thought I'd throw you a heads up.

The second player has had no issues.

I use cdparanoia to rip, and normalize to equalize volumes on all songs I'm going to burn to CD's and either cdrecord or k3b to burn them.
