Question Best Cd-r Mark

All the cdr's i've tried sucks, even tdk and verbatim, You guys maybe can tell which cdrs are better, i mean which cdrs are more durable. I had a lot of bad experiences in cdrs, cause they always got broke, the cdrs seem to lose part of their reflective cover, the only ones are the philips "megalife hr100", they don't have little points thay you can see through them.

where can i buy online TRUE QUALITY CDRS??????


WELL, SORRY FOR MY POOR ENGLISH, I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND

What do you do with your CD-R's??? Verbatim are the best mate and are true quality. I use the DataLife Plus Verb CD-R's and they work great! Try these...

P.S.: Jenny Frost looked great at PITP on Sunday (Totally irrelevant but it is hard to argue with )

Ive never had problems with any CDR, right from the cheapest to the xpensive makes.

You must use your games as Frisbes if the back are peeling off

Maybe you are burning your games to fast?

I've noticed with CD-R's really the only thing that matters is the shape of your laser and your mod. I had a no solder and all I could get to boot was Verbatim data life plus. With my Apple I can get anything to boot, even the 400 pk for $70 that I'm using right now. I may be completely wrong about this.

Thumbs down

The problem that i have with my cd's is that all of them (or at least a big part of them) seem to have a little points that you can see through them. I really don't know how to explain it in english........... I really care about my cd's and I don't know why they always have these "points" after 2 or 3 months, It's like the "reflective layer" of the cd start to given off. I have use philips hr100 and kodak "ultima" and they seem to be the best, I think it's because they have this protective layer between the reflective layer and the disc.

SO TELL ME PLEASE, WHERE CAN I BUY ONLINE THESE FAMOUS VERBATIM DATA LIFE PLUS???? I NEED ABOUT 75

Memorex are hit and miss.......

I have used them, but prefer Verbatims......

Memorex tends to have Longer load times and are More noisy....
(At least my experience with them)
