What should I use for non DVD playback?

[DeadManPaul]

My system has a Toshiba 16x DVD player and a Yamaha 16x8x40 CDRW.

I always assumed that when installing software, playing games that require the VD to be in etc. that the DVD was the best choice. I was recently told that this is incorrect and that I should the CDRW for playback of all things not DVD since it has a 40x playback vs a 16x playback on the DVD.

Is this correct?

16x dvd usually equals 48x cdrom.

I use both my DVD and CDRW drives. Both work equallly well.
