Mary - I did see a few mentions of jamming (not a lot), but also several suggestions that assuring that you have a level surface and several commments (including one here) about loading both sides for balance would eliminate most jamming issues.

Pete - you are correct about the work of burning all of my CDs. However, I only need to do it once, the discs will be pristing (take a look at ringmir's comments above), "cd-text" will be there and I can also protect or use my original CDs in my cars if desired. Again, several comments I saw indicate the Mega is finicky about scratches/smudges, so this might be good preventative medicine.

The burning process also gives me an opportunity to do something I've wanted to do for quite a while AND solve some of the "8 Group" restricition issues. I'll pick off favorite songs as I go and make some mixes that I can put in as one Group.

Andy - what software with "cd-text" are you using to do your burning? Did you try any other software that I should avoid?
