On some sites you can see quality tests of different CD-Rs.
I found that TDK reflex, Sony or Verbatin CD-Rs are good. Also note that
CD-Rewritables can only safely burnt at 4x speed, even if noticed otherwise
(The Verbatin CDRWs say 24x, but my system always said 4x was the max when
inserting such a disk, same with the Sony CDRWs but those also said max 4x
on the cover :).

If you get such a problem again you can also turn the recorder off and then
on again to eject the CD by button. I doubt if the system recognises the
drive again without reboot after doing that. You can at least try to start
cdrdao after doing that.
