File permissions on burned CDs and DVDs

When I burn CDs and DVDs, I often find that the permissions are set such that they are only readable by me. This causes a problem when I go to a Linux machine (or presumably another Mac) with a different login ID. (Interestingly, windows ignores these permissions.) If I remember, I can go in and change all the permissions through the Finder (or Terminal) before burning the CD, but I often forget. Is there a way in the burn process to make a disc universally readable?

Thanks,
