Well, it's interesting to know that it's happened to someone else, with
post it notes? and a different make of disk? I really will have to be
careful.
On another point, I don't find disk copying to be that reliable nowadays for
cds. Maybe it's because cd writers have become so cheap or the cheap disks I
use. A few years ago, I never used to have problems and I have always used
the cheapest disks.
