Best Games Copying CD-Writer + Audio CD's

i am considering of buying a new CD-writer which I will use mostly for copying games and making my own audio cd's. There are 4 CD-writer am thinking about 1) Philips CDRW 1200 Series 2) Newest Yamaha 16/12/40(i think) 3) A PLEXTOR 4) A TEAC . Which one should I choose to have everything plus support for CD-Text for Audio CD's

Best cdrwiter at the moment I think is the plextor 12/10/32 scsi or eide, there's nothing it can't copy unlike the plextor 16/10/40 (I shouldend buy this one because it doesn't do RAW-Write).

[backitup]

writer: plaextor 12x10x32 or ricoh mp7120a
software for audio: easy creater 4.02 or nero 5
software for games: cd clone or cdrwin & ppf-o-matic

It is said that Plextor made a deal with some protections companies and cannot copy games with Safedisc 2. Is this true ?

Cheers Snowie - you saved me a lot of money (was going to get one of the new Plexies).

All the best :-)

Some Plextor's won't copy everything.
