I used to think that Maxell was the best. A holdover from the days when I bought Maxell cassette tapes, I think. As for CD-Rs and DVD-Rs, I haven't found anything better than Verbatim in terms of recording quality. Plus, I have an overly sensitive CD player in my car. It plays commercial CDs just fine, but many CD-Rs won't play. You put it in the slot and then it pops it right back out. That just doesn't happen with the Verbatim CD-Rs. My theory is that the CD-Rs that pop out are a tad too thick. Just a theory. Verbatim brand just seems to pay more attention to all the details. Simply the best.

These discs have trouble playing in older CD players, and there are more than the usual number of defective discs. Still, at this price, you couldn't expect much better. If you want better, be willing to pay more.

After picking up some bargain CD's at Big Lots! I chose to buy a better brand this time.

Can never find an extra blank disc around. Does pay to spend what the stores are asking for a ten pack. Another great Amazon deal the whole amily can use. Nice quality.

After seeing the majority of favorable reviews for these, I bought them. A huge mistake. I have now burned 6 of the 50 as music CDs using my computer. The first three were given to a friend to play in her car -- none of the three would play. I burned the other three for myself. Although the CDs would play, some of the songs had a strange type of "interference" sound. It seemed to come up only on certain songs, and only in certain parts of the songs. Nonetheless, it is sufficiently distracting that neither I nor my kids want to listen to these CDs, which are all going to be thrown away. Although I should return the spindle (given that I'm batting 0 for 6), the hassle of packaging it and mailing it back isn't worth the time this will take, so I guess I'll just "eat" the $20. I wish I'd have listened to the reviewer who suggested buying Kodak. Although they are more expensive, I would've saved myself $20 and a lot of aggravation.
