Yamaha CDR-F1E & MET CDR

I am really confused....ok this is the situation.
I have recently bought a few MET CDR 1x-24x, and my CDRW, is a Yamaha 44x24x48x. HEre is the problem, when i burn onto the CD, it only alows me to burn at 8x!!!!
Ok, now it might jsut be the CD, but then just today, i did a multisession, adn the CD burnt at 16x !!!!?!??!?!? I am really confused here....plz help

but i did use nero 5, and i wasn't burning audio files - i was copying a CD (data)....and i tried another CDR disk, and it burnt at 16x no prob....just the MET 1x-24x that is confusing me!!!

also, i have read somewhere that some Cds are more compatible wif paticular writers...could this be the problem?

and also, does anyone know if the Yamaha CDRW-F1E can write at a speed of 24x ???? thanks
