TDK or not TDK??

[green knight]

I've just bought a new batch of TDK Reflex silver (CD-R74CMEC rated at up to 16-speed) and I've noticed that the dye colour seems to have changed from the usual mid-blue to a light blue-green. According to CDR-Identifier they're TDK OK but I'm not sure. The previous batch were rated at up to 8-speed.

Can anyone confirm or deny they're genuine TDK and not the dreaded Ritek?

Thanks.

cdr identifier checks the atip, doesnt it? feurio can be used for confirmation, if you want another atip software reader.

@Green Knight:

What's wrong with RiTEK? The CD Media World site is years out of date and RiTEK have significantly improved their media over the last few years. I know because I've done testing on many RiTEK CD-R's, both Cyanine-based and Phthalocyanine-based. In fact, RiTEK media is now so good and is built so well that it is my opnion that RiTEK is now better than the old TDK Cyanine.

Please have a look at these tests on RiTEK CD-R's done by Dolphinus_Rex:
