Maybe this should be a make-option for building the port. I actually like it not being "-s max" for several reasons: - most audio-cd-player still won't play audio-cds recorded at max-speed. - many cdrs don't like the max-speed the cd-rw-drive offers. - many cd-drives don't like data-cds recorded at a higher speed. at least I don't have another medium to throw away if I forget to select a proper speed.
