Blank CD-R

[c357323]

Hello all,

At their website, the creators of CDRWIN says about blank CD-R:
"We only recommend Mitsui, Philips, Kodak, and TDK brand discs".

Do you agree with this, especially the part regarding TDK?

They really only say that because either they are sponsered by those media or theyve only tested with that media.

That way if you email them with a problem they can ask you "Were you using our recommended media?" Then if you werent there easy answer will be use these brands.

Basically use whatever works for you, but if you want their support use their recommended media.

A lot of CD-R brands works for me. But I need to know which will still work years from now.

This is exactly what I need to know.
What are the quality media you are refering to?
And do you have a list of supporters for your opinion?

I always use Verbatim DataLife Plus. I stay the hell away from Memorex though.
