Why do I keep getting an error message everytime I try to burn a cd

Please help, for days now I have not been able to burn a CD. Everytime I try to burn a disc, I keep getting the message "The attempt to burn a CD failed.The burn failed because of a medium write error". Is anyone else having the same problems if so are there any solution.Any information will be appreciated.

Is anyone else having the same problems if so are there any solution.
Search the forum (I use a general web search engine) and you will find hundreds and hundreds of posts about this, spanning over a decade.  You may even find one of the several posts I make about this each month.
Try restarting your computer.
Try a slower burn speed.
Try a different brand of media.
Try using an optical drive cleaning disc.
See if you can burn successfully outside of iTunes.  There's many free burning utilities out there (check www.pure-mac.com).  If those fail then it is likely something more fundamentally wrong with the drive.  Any Macbook old enough to be running 10.5.8 may well be old enough to need a new optical drive.
