My theory is that there may be some fade or similar in the dye as time goes by. By fade, I mean the dye's opacity state may change from opaque to clear, sufficiently to change how it's read by the Dreamcast.

It has already been noted on some CD-R message forums that the faster you burn, the less time the dye has to turn opaque. This is obvious. This is why 6x discs may not burn properly at 8x. The time it takes to burn a bit to OPAQUE takes longer on these discs.

It is possible that the dye may be turned opaque by a fast burn, but not as OPAQUE as it could, if the burn was slowed down a little bit. Such discs may be OK at first, but the opacity of the dye ####ts to fade as time goes on.

Hope this all makes sense.
