Hmm... I see...

Never had any problems before.  BTW this is a really nice CDR drive, it
has a 2MB buffer... On a PC under various Windows OS's I was never able to
force a buffer underrun no matter what I did.  I really that this hardware
should be able to handle decoding a few mp3's while burning at 4x.

I guess there really isn't anything for me to do at this point, just
wait until it happens again.
