[DataMore]

I have an old Sony but still works like a charm! :D

Don't know which one has the best price/performance but you can take a look at some reviews to every cd-writers here:

CDR Freaks (http://www.cdfreaks.com/)
CDR Labs (http://www.cdrlabs.com/)

:D Yamaha. :D

[Nobody1234]

Plextor is the best but overpriced. Lg is the best price/performance in my area and is compatible with everything.

[Benno]

I have the liteon 52x and it works fine for me. i never had any kind of problem with it.

[[B][O][T]]

My current one is a Philips RW3200 or something....(Crap)
I'm gonna buy a TDK cyclone soon. (Best in test I've read....)

[Gooch]

Liteon, LG and Plextor are good. Don't touch Aopen with a barge pole.

[Supernatural]

Sony, of course. A bit pricey but they make some very high quality products.

PLEXTOR is the best!

I have burned-out 2 "other brands" of burners in my lifetime, but Plextor is the KING of burners and I am still burning with it.

Here's why!
A Plextor can copy a CD that is copy-protected (as long as you buffer it as an image to the hard drive first). Use the Plextor as the SOURCE and BURNER. A Plextor can read those very weak sectors, and read those intentional errors used for copy protection, then burn those too. Make EXACT copies!

I have averaged one "CD-coaster", per 40 CDs. Not too shabby, eh? Especially when a bad disk is usually human error.

Also, Plextor supports VERIREC, which allows you to increase or decrease the LASER-burning intensity. So if your cheap CD player in your automobile has a problem playing CDs, the VERIREC is your answer.

You can over-burn with a PLEXTOR.

I make legal backups of my store-bought playstation disks with the Plextor. (however, I do have a mod chip for the PSX, back when I used the cheap burner).

One Last Note: Use PRINCO brand disks. Great for making VCDs. I noticed most other cheap off-brands, will burn, but can't play in a VCD player. Your home DVD player, that is in your living, room can play VCDs and probably mp3 files too!

lite on.......cheap and good

[Gambo]

I use HP writers. Never had a problem in years :D

[harrycary]

Bah, it doesn't matter what brand you buy(I've seen them all break down). These days they are all cheap anyways(50-100$, including Sony!).
I wouldn't suggest Yamaha(though they are good), because they just announced that they will stop making them in March of this year. http://www.global.yamaha.com/news/20030205.html
So, getting support and warrant service will be a problem.

p.s. just because it may be branded as such, it was probably manufactured by someone else. buy what you can afford!

ACER is the best!!, Plextor pfttt, Liteon HAHAHAH
