$ wodim -v -eject cdimage.iso # NO!

$ wodim -v -eject padsize=63s -pad -dao cdimage.iso # YES!

Why the padding? Turns out that a lot of distributed .iso’s haven’t been created with proper padding (I’m looking at YOU, Ubuntu!). -dao and padding helps with CD drives can’t handle data that ends abruptly. For more info, check out:
