While it MAY be a case of differences between product lines, the LG brand CD-R drives
I had a few years ago would NOT reliably read audio disks at anything other than
1x speed. They would just 'hang' at higher speeds. Made ripping a CD a PITA.
Finally changed the drives for cheap AOpen's and Acers' and had no more problems.
  I have heard of DOA LG LCD monitors (I know a dealer quite well and his tech HATES
the LG failure rates), so I too avoid LG as a matter of policy.
And their washer/driers are flimsily built (I bothered to look just to be 'diligent').
