I was going to burn a copy of a commercial audio CD and could not get it to load. No messages, etc. It just makes some noise, then the drive ejects it. I tried some other audio CDs and they loaded fine... any ideas?

The optical drives in Apple products suck balls. Having established that:

Do you have parallels installed? I had a lot of discs that wouldn't load when I was running parallels -- something to do with each OS trying to address the disc. If no, I'd try a simple restart, along with a quick firmware check. If you don't have the most current, go ahead and get it.

Perhaps it's DRM'd -- what's the title?

That was my initial thought. The CD is Enya Watermark (Reprise label). It is in good condition, and this is on a dual G5 powermac, so no parallels installed.

no parallels installed.

Natch. That may well be common knowledge 'round these parts, but I didn't know.

I'm now having exactly the same problem, but it's on 7 of 7 discs I tried last night. I'll let you know what's up when I sort it out.
