Discussion: fast write speed on DVD burners a gimmick?

Our well respected Senior Administrator and Reviewer, Dee, has written a review on the Lite-On iHAS324 DVD Writer. She gave the drive a "Safe Buy" award and concluded "Good feature set and not too many negative points, the Lite-On iHAS324 is generally an excellent drive".

The drive burns at 24x speed, which is only slightly faster than other drives writing at, for example, 18x or 20x speed. Is writing at 24x therefore a gimmick, or do we really need it?
