That's like driving at only 10mph to ensure that your tires have a good grip on 
a nice clean road. I don't think it's a problem. I suspect part of the legend 
has be spurned by the bizzare ramblings of a few audiophiles who swear that 
they can hear the difference between a 1x mastered CD and disc written at 
faster than play speed. You aren't in this league are you?
