The underlying substrate for home-burned CDs is different from professionally-made CDs. In hhe mass-manufactured CDs the pits and flats are more "substantial" than in those made at home. I don't know the specifics of the home CDs, just that they are harder for some lasers to read because of the technology.

Cheers.
