Your right many groups ( read Gratefull Dead - Phish) actively encourage
concert CD's. Those that don't well I have tons of Dylan boots and still
have bought every single CD he has released.  Now to your questions:

1. With an older system, I would think any CDRW would be fine. I'm not sure
if it would work fine with a high speed burner ( 32x - 40x) but I don't see
why not.

2.  I would look at the Cendyne 32x or the Lite On 32x or 40x.  The 32x  can
be found on Pricewatch.com for around $70. Be sure to check
www.resellerratings.com BEFORE buying as some of the lowest priced vendors
can't be trusted. WWW.NEWEGG.COM is a good vendor.

  Good luck
