I fully understand. Also,
nero quality scores are very subjective. A perfect burn with some little anomoly that would never effect palyback can kill your score. I personally am pretty anal about how my disks scan, but then again I usally just run a kprobe test and maybe a transfer rate, and if I scanned further, I might find faults in my so called good burns. Lets face it, anything over 90 is going to play just fine. (I dont do cdspeed scans (I do kprobe), but the same princaple applys. I get pissed if I get above a certain point, but in rteality, you can go way beyond that point and still have a very good burn. Personally I think any pi spike above 20 is sign of a low quality burn, because the media I use is well matched to the drives I use and I can do that, but in reality, the book spec is 280 pi and I am just being over critical. You are too. a disk that scores 90 plays fine, but hey, why not shoot for perfection, I do!!!!
