can anyone answer once and for ALL the question of read and write speeds that should be used for cdrwin? Ive heard so many variations on the answer..
I know that you CAN make a working copy using highers speeds than 1X, but does it REALLY reduce the quality of the backed up disc?

Copying at faster speeds is hit and miss. As a general rule, for games with multiple audio files, it never works at higher speeds. What happens is that the audio tracks are not in sync with game play. Some games work ok at higher speeds (I've gone as high as 4x, when going from a good copy to another good copy) but these are usually simpler games with only one audio track.
Trust me....you'll stand to create a lot of coasters (unless you did what I did recently, which is to use re-writable CDs) if you try at higher speeds. All u sacrifice is an hour of your time per game...
