When I record a DVD I turn verification on.  (I got into the habit when I used a tape backup drive back in the day.)  When the disc is being
 burned it starts out at 8x and finishes at 8x.  So it seems that during
 burning it's using CLV mode.  However, when the verification process is
 running the speed varies from slow to about 8x at the end.  So it's
 apparently using CAV mode.  But when I rip a single-layer DVD the
 download speed approaches 16x towards the end of the read.  This
 process, too, apparently uses CAV mode.
 
 My question:  Why does the verification process take longer to read than
 it does when burning or when ripping a DVD?
 
 FWIW I'm using Nero 7, but this phenomenon happens with other software I
 have used to burn discs.
