Re: CD backups and burning speed

Yes, using Cd-R does wear down your laser more than a regular cd or dvd but only because it has to work harder to read burnt games. But dont worry, lasers arent immortal after all, and they will eventually wear out, but hopefully not as soon as some have. And to your second question, Not to my knowledge. I dont know if there is any program that can tell how fast a cd was burnt, but I could be wrong. Check with bighap and TD, they may have some more info.
