And now I can't seem to burn these things to disc correctly. I'm burning two approximately 350MB episodes per disc. This was working fine the last time I started this (burned about thirteen discs and then ran out of jewel cases so I put the project on hold), but now on every disc the second episode causes my media player to crash. Arrgh!
Any ideas on what the problem might be? This drive hasn't seen a lot of use, so I don't think it's the drive wearing out. Failing that, is there anyone out there with a DVD burner I can borrow?

Update
After further testing, the problem may be bad media. I have a few Philips CD-Rs, so I tried two of those and they've been perfect, whereas I've produced four coasters tonight using the spindle of a hundred no-name things I have. It's weird though; they were working just fine before.
This is my first relatively large scale CD burning adventure; does the brand of the media make that big a difference? I'm asking those with experience.
