With new equipment, theres basically no difference. But with older equipment, you can have problems. Try updating the firmware on your burner. That should fix your problem. Google the modle # of your burner and search around until you find the appropriate firmware, and follow the provided instructions.

Is your burner -r compatible? If its not thats your problem stright away.
It usually says in front next to the button you press to eject.
