I'm not sure how much I trust Toast's verification process. I've burned about one hundred VCDs/SVCDs with Toast and gotten a failed verification on about half of them ... but they play flawlessly on the DVD players (well, SVCD is not supported on all the DVD players ... but that is another issue). Data CDs and music CDs sometimes also fail verification, but I've never had a problem reading or playing the CDs.
So, I am not sure what the verification process does, but I've never had a disc fail verification that posed a further problem in terms of useability.
Anyone knows what verification does, from a technical perspective?

I bought about 50 Imation 1-4x CDRW discs. I was able to write just fine to
them the first time. But when I tried rewriting to them, more than half had
errors during the verification process in Toast Titanium 5.0.1. I've tried
different speeds, and it doesn't seem to matter. They erase just fine tho.
Any ideas as to a solution? I know it's the discs specifically, cause the
Cyber Drive CDRW discs I bought rewrite perfectly every time...
