No. Burst mode doesn't apply any error checking so all that 'copy ok' means in burst mode is that EAC was able to read the whole track, but with no guarantee of accuracy. You should only use burst mode on a really bad disk that just can't be read in secure mode or paranoide mode, in which case you should use 'test & copy'. If you get the same CRC for the test read and the copy read then you're getting as high quality as you can possibly get from burst mode.
