What files or folders are you burning?

Finder's burn folders operate by accumulating aliases to the items you
want to burn. When you proceed to burn the CD/DVD, it follows the
aliases to fetch the original items. At the end of the burn, it does a
verify, and if the original files changed between the burn and verify,
Finder will report an error because the CD doesn't match the current
state of the file.

If you are burning something like your Library folder (or anything else
which contains frequently changing files) it is very likely you will get
an error reported for the burn.

This is unlikely to apply when you are burning a CD with iTunes, because
you presumably aren't changing the content or tag information in the
music files while the CD is being burned.

I have found the finder's burn functioning to be a little flaky.
iTunes does well, but when I'm burning something not from iTunes I use
the free app Burn. It works well.
