Can someone please explain what the difference is between expensive and cheap cd'r 's. No matter what you pick up in the store they claim to be A+ Quality. I never bought cheap cd-r before but if there is not a major difference (for copying psx games especially) then I might as well buy cheap ones. Right now I buy SONY 650mb/74min CDQ-74CN XQ cd-r's. Is this sony product good? They werent too expensive.

The cheaper Noname CDR's and some other low-costs (for example Lead Data) are produce to the lowest cost possible. They may fail both burning and reading already after a couple of years. If you take a look at ####://www.cdmediaworld.com and click on the "CDR Quality" link you will find usefull information! I think you shoul go with Sony, TDK, Kodak and other well known companies. I use Kodak myself!
