If there is any difference at all (if you are using a not-so-good CD writer), you won't see/hear it.

Is there anything else I need to consider here?
You need a good quality CD writer and of course good media.

I am frustrated by the media limitation of the pioneer, and the fact that I cannot just get a load of Taioya Yuden discs and get going. Is there actually any difference between a normal CDR and an "Audio" one, in quality?
The media limitation (only "audio CD-R" are permitted) is common with all standalone CD recorders. As I have read in another post of yours, you live in the UK. I think, you can get TY CD-R at svp.co.uk.
The only difference between "audio CD-R" and "Data CD-R" is the special marking on the Audio type that indicates, the additional levys are paid.

P.S.: I suggest moving this into the newbie or in the audio forum
