Forgive my ignorance but I've never understood how it goes. Is the higher number faster or the lower number? For example, 16x or 48x? I think the lower, but, again, I'm not sure.

Maybe I should also ask is there a certain speed that's better for music? Data?

48x, all the new burners you buy today should be more than adequate speed wise for anything you wnat to do.
Thats the whole point of Buffer Under run protection so if the drive cannot keep up there is no break in the data being received.
That is not a Nero thing it has to be supported by the actual burner, but all new burners today should have this built in.
Nothing wrong with using cake boxes of 50 or more, brand names are availble in these and you will save your self some money, I use Fujifilm and Sony myself with good results.

In your example, the 48x is faster. When burning (writing) CDs, however, you may well find that burning at a slower speed will give you better results, particularly if you use bulkpack CDs. Go for better quality ones ... and, even then, I'd use a slower burning speed.

48x is faster that 16x most current generation burners support burning speeds upto 52x the burning speed also depends on the quality of the media you are burning on.. so purchase good quality cd's too

if you are asking about the software NERO EXPRESS is better and the best software. if you are asking about the cd-writer its better you buy a LG writer. it has a unique technology which makes the cd burning comparitively very faster than all other cd-writers

Burning at higher speeds can cause errors; good cd burning software such as Nero will give you options to use slower burning speeds and to use buffer underrun protection such as burnproof.
Also try not to use cheap cd blanks, especially ones that come in cakes of 50 or more.

the higher the number the faster.
the faster it is, there is a chance of corruption in the files burned

you are able to regulate the fee which the documents is written to the sparkling disc, by utilising the applying which you're utilising. in basic terms open up this technique, circulate to burn a CD, and you are able to regulate the burn speed there!
