Jochen, No problems here. My congratulations to all involved. A great piece of work!
As I know from experience, you can never be certain that every disk is going to be readable by every drive. Even if you verify each disk after burning, some read problems are almost inevitable. And the very act of printing on the disks might introduce a miniscule rotational imbalance that makes the disk borderline on certain makes of drive. +R/-R shouldn't be an issue these days, but still, some drives are better at reading one format than another. My personal preference is +R. Anyway, nice work.
