"Music" CD-Rs vs normal CD-Rs.. doesn't matter right?

Personally I always just get Sony's because it's the only decent brand they always have in my area.. However my parents were buying some blank cds the other day and noticed that the supposed "Music" cds are more expensive than the regular blank cds. They asked an old lady clerk in Wal-mart and the old lady told them "if you want your music to sound good you have to get the music cd-r's not the regular ones" but I'm 98% sure that's utter bullshit, and that saying the cd-r's are good for "music" is just a way to try to get people to spend extra $$ on them. Since its all digital, a copy is a copy is a copy, I could see trying to make cd-r's that don't scratch as easily etc but those would be just as good for data cds as music.. It has got to just be a marketing ploy.

I remembered this site (cdmediaworld) from 2 or 3 years ago (was surprised I actually remembered the URL hehe)... Did a little catching up on the site today but I couldn't find this mentioned anywhere.. I was just hoping someone could confirm that supposed "music" cd-r's are just as good as regular ones (of the same brand). I realize if the "music" cd-r's were made in a different better cd factory than the regular ones it could matter.. But just because it says "music" on the spindle doesn't mean a damn thing does it?

thanks!
