How is LTR - 52246S's media compatibility in general?

Generally pretty good. With the right media, it's stellar. With some more obscure makes it can be horrible. But as long as you stick to the fairly well-known ones (Ritek/TY/Prodisc/Mitsui/Kodak/MBI and so on) and avoid CMC and Mitsubishi you can't go far wrong.

I disagree about Mitsubishi...somewhat. I'm using the Verbatim DataLifePlus 48X on my TDK VeloCD 4800B and my BUSLink RW5252 (OEM Lite-On LTR-52246S), and I haven't had any problems with this media on either burner.

As I understand it, Lite-On was one of the manufacturers Verbatim/Mitsubishi Chemicals sought out for testing the 48X-rated media.

Even though I don't have any at the moment, I suspect that the Verbatim DataLifePlus 52X CD-R would perform in a similar fashion (which is, very well). :)

I'd modify Jase's statement like this: "Avoid Mitsubishi (or Verbatim) if it is less than 48X." :)
