Absolutely.

This theory seems not bad, but also the tracksize in the following 
output for a dvdrecord-made medium that Win likes and Linux doesnt
like shows:

READ DVD STRUCTURE[#0h]:
 Media Book Type:       25h, DVD-R book [revision 5]
 Last border-out at:    0*2KB=0
READ TRACK INFORMATION[#1]:
 Track State:           complete
 Track Start Address:   0*2KB
 Free Blocks:           0*2KB
 Track Size:            4294967295*2KB
FABRICATED TOC:
 Track#1  :             14@0
 Track#AA :             14@0
 Multi-session Info:    #1@0

Ah, yes. When choosing 17 in menu, says:
readcd: Input/output error. read_cd: scsi sendcmd: no error
CDB:  BE 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 63 FA 00 00

readcd: Input/output error. Error on sector 0 not corrected. Total of 1
errors.

And less -f /dev/scd0: read error

Finally, one of the plus-media with readability problems:
mediainfo looks perfectly sane, but even recorder itself
has problems to read:
kernel: scsi0: ERROR on channel 0, id 0, lun 0, CDB:
        Request Sense 00 00 00 40 00
kernel: Info fld=0x1b6840, Current sd0b:00: sensekey Medium Error
kernel: Additional sense indicates Unrecovered readerror
kernel:  I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 7184640 

After all of this, probably I have no other choice than
to try another drive sooner or later.
