Kodak Gold Ultima's and Digital Science's have been working great for me, 95% of the discs I've burnt since I got my first burner 3 years ago are still with me. The Kodak Gold's I've been using were all Made in Mexico.
If you're really worried that the Kodak's may go bung, try these for quality media...
- Taiyo Yuden Co. Ltd.
(Made in Japan, a.k.a. Sony CDQ-74CN, Philips Premium Silver, Imation 1x-4x, Imation 8x-Certified)
- Ricoh Co. Ltd.
(Made in Taiwan/European Union/USA)
- Kodak Japan Ltd.
(Their Irish-made Gold+Silver Ultima CD-R's work excellent)
- Pioneer Video Corp.
(Made in Japan/Taiwan)
- TDK Corp.
(Made in Japan/USA)
- Mitsui Toatsu Chemicals
(Made in Japan/Taiwan/USA)
Almost anything made in Japan or the USA is excellent quality. For important data, avoid CD-R's Made in Hong Kong, India, or Malaysia. Taiwan CD-R's have improved remarkably over the last year, and so you should find them okay.
