I wonder if anyone could clarify the advantages and disadvantages of burning CDs at 1x vs., say, at 4x or 8x. Obviously, there are time advantages to burning CDs at an accelerated rate but does one risk degrading the quaility of the file/material that is burned?
I am converting a large collection of DATs to CDs for patron listening and for "preservation" copies and am concerned about saving time vs. sacrificing quality.

Thank you,
