Why Lite On?

I've just been wondering, what makes the Lite On CD-RW drives better? Everybody keeps saying they're better, but I'm not picking up on whey. Do they burn more reliably? Sorry if this is a really common question -- search didn't turn up much.

Because they're cheap, fast, readily available everywhere, and some can be upgraded (48x can be flashed to a 52x).

also is it worth the risk for this little improvemsnt

anyways we tested a similar sized burn and
@ 48x he burnt a 692mb cd in 2min46sec
@ 52x I burnt a 698mb cd in 2min32sec

so in this example probably saved approx 10-15sec give or take the fact I burnt a 6mb larger file
