If you're only getting this with audio CDs, it might just be that your drive sucks at audio. Normally, every drive should at least do >=5x, but that may quickly get worse when the disc is bad (doesn't even need to be a visible defect) or the drive gets slightly out of adjustment. When ripping a disc with grip or cdparanoia, you get smileys indicating the read quality. What does that say? -- Got Backup? Jabber: Shadowdancer at jabber.fsinf.de
