I was curious what brand of CD-R's are best in terms of quality and reliability. I had tried several brands and I seemed to have gotten some errors (on some of the CD-R's) when burning. I figure that this forum must have some pros that have a lot of experience with which are the best brands. Any advice would be appreciated. :)

Verbatim Super AZO - Excellent media with great coating
TDK - Another excellent brand with always perfect results
Infiniti - Superb media and very cost effective
DataSafe - Very cheap and not one coaster from 200+

Forget "particular" brands.
I take any brand that's free after rebate.
I wait until the sale. I buy about 300 CD-R's (3 spindles) and send the rebate in.
300 will easily last until the next "free after rebate" sale.
If these manufacturers want to play this rebate game ...I'll play along <_<
(why not give the savings up front? :angry: )
