Going to transfer some tracks from my comp to xbox.

Heard there was some problem with the Xbox reading CDRs, do I need to burn the CDR's at the slowest possible speed to remedy this?

This CD-RW has taken about 40 mins to copy though. :S

I got a magazine booklet when I first got the Xbox that told me to use CD-RW but I never wanted to put any burnt music on until now so I forgot what it was I had to do. :)

CDRs don't work on mine, I think it depends on the drive you have in there...

CD-RWs work, I've heard.

"Use CD-RW's"

Wouldn't they be less likely to work? CDR playback is more widely supported. Plus, CDRW's cost more

Some drives within the console support CDR's, some don't.

Use CD-RW's.
