Thought this would be an interesting question to post. I'm burning an !LEGITMATE! back-up of my WC3 disc and jamming to Junkie XL, while surfing the 'net. Anyone else doing the same?

I usually leave my computer alone while it's burning... It's a habit I built up with my 4x CDR drive without burn-proof (which I used for years)... So I do it now even with my 48x40x12 liteOn with burn-proof...

Now it only takes around 3 mins to burn a CD anyways, so I dont mind...

No but I am glad to see someone else who listens to Junkie XL. Do you also listen to Urban Dance Squad which is where the lead singer comes from?

I always left it alone when burning until I finally update the firmware. The newer firmware is awesome, the drive is now capable of burn-proof, I've been taking this advantage.

Always been doing that, I trust my machine to be fast and stable enough to handle the load. Also been ripping CDs using EAC+LAME while surfing, I think that's more taxing.

I very rarely get a coaster (once I found the optimal speed for burning) but getting 50 discs for $15, hell I wouldn't care any way!

most of my burning happens when i'm about to leave for somewhere (like mp3s or something) so i'm usually doing something completely non-computer related like getting dressed. but i have burnt and surfed in the past.

Ever since I downgraded my PC from an Athlon to a Pentium 4, about the only thing I can do while burning a CD is surf the net. :(
