CD or not CD
 

more from the 'malcolm school' of uk.rec.audio-ism:

If it is so difficult to read a cd why can I copy every last bit to ram
twice without a single difference between reads? That's on a 52x cd-rom
drive costing abt £15.

lower your reading speed

Why if I'm not getting errors? The drive is not at a computer that's
usually sat at so the noise from the drive is not a problem. As mentioned
I get two identical disc images.

CD-roms are cav devices so they read faster speed at the outside of the
disc, a realistic overall rating is about 40x, which is still only about 6
megabits per second.
