Well I had it for about a month now and pretty much abused it like crazy, burning non-stop for hours on end ....still working! I only tried a few brands of blank media but so far I found: -I hate 2X anything (DVD-R & DVD+R), coaster city for my batch of 2X Princo DVD-R for movies, okay for DATA. -my pioneer burner and player loves Memorex 4X DVD+R, haven't have a coaster yet after 50 disc burned. Well that's it for now, just sharing info
Actually there are a few problems with the A06 and 4x media. He/she is not the only one to experience this. Check for a new firmware up grade from Gradius website. Search Graduis and firmware and pioneer in google.
