iTunes- this is getting old

Without warning and at any time, when I try to burn a playlist from iTunes 4, the burn will stopwith this warning- "Disc burning failed because of a disc failure." It is getting very frustrating. I have changed the permissions, restarted, ran DiskWarrior, everything. Sometimes the burn will complete, but about half the time it fails.

my advice is to burn the songs straight, and not through iTunes, I have never had a problem, but there are tons of other methonds to burning.
 
ive never had a failed burn with itunes ever on all the computers and versions of itunes. what kidn of computer are you using and what burner?

Beginning to think so. Going to try TDK or Maxell. Bought some Imation discs at the same time I updated to 4.
 
every once in a while any random company can have a batch of bad blank discs. it really sucks when you are the one who ends up with them. i remember the first time i got a cd burner i bought some imation discs because they were supposed to be the best, but really they sucked so much that i ended up throwing them away and getting verbatims.
 
Might I ask what computer you are using?

I've had the same issue with an iBook, but it was because I was moving the computer while it was trying to burn. I let it sit on a hard surface and it worked just fine.

It's 4. I downgraded to 3 and am not having any problems whatsoever. Just lucky I didn't convert everything to AAC.
