It is the equivalent to the FAT file system, as opposed to the VFAT file system. If you want case sensitive names, you need to allow Windows compatibility. The prompt is misleading that way. I normally use GnomeBreaker to burn CD/DVDs. The windows compatibility mode (Juliet file system) is enabled by default. So is the Rockridge file system for Linux name support. You can still read CD/DVDs without the Rockridge file system. Linux know about the Juliet extension to the standard CD/DVD file format. You just do not get the Unix file attributes.
