Many drives, especially DVD and CD-ROM (read-only) drives, have fairly poor
C2 error reporting accuracy. Especially since CDSpeed says that the drive
seems unable to report damaged sectors, I would take the damaged sector
indications from that drive with quite a grain of salt.

C2 errors are not simply a function of the disc either, they're also a
function of the reading drive, and many DVD drives don't really read CD-R
discs all that well..


Okay, so maybe I don't have to get all worried after all. I'm going
to see if I can find anyone with another drive and Nero CDSpeed and
see if I get these errors on that drive. Thanks.
