Hmmm...does seem common:

I burned over 400 CDs last year while converting vinyl albums to CD. I'd
burn 5 to 10 at a sitting, and joked to myself that I was probably going
to burn out the CD burner. Maybe this sort of started it's demise.
Any Pioneer recommendations? I don't particularly need speed, just
consistent, quality burns, both CD and DVD.
