Which ones do you people recommend using?


I've bought a pack of 100 laser blank cd's for $45, are they any good, well it was my fault because i just asked dad to get some cd's and he thought it was a good deal so he got that brand.

I'm worried, are laser cds good compared to TDK?

What would you rate laser cds related to reliability/faults??

I've used Laser discs on many occasions - never had one coaster.

You know how the cd is just plain boring nothing printed on it.


What could i do to make the cd look more superior with pics etc... where do you get the labels...

EMTEC - they were free from coles.

i just buy whatever is cheap.

If I see a deal for 50blanks for $20 or under, consider it bought!

TDK 100 pack for $55. Good deal, I've had bad experiences with cheap-o brands like Lazer, like discs not working or even worse, the data peeling off the CD, bad stuff.

I don't buy much CD-R's these days, I usually buy DVD-R's or DVD-RW's.
