I guess you and I are the few that have yet to have problems with memorex. They've been burning flawlessly for me for the past 3 years.Quote:

Ahhhhhhhhh, that's the good stuff :D:D Man I love using Fuji CD-R's. I really haven't ever noticed a difference (between garbage no name stuff and the good stuff), but I just really prefer Fuji CD-R's (just Fuji products in general). I would just say look for the best deal. :cool:Quote:
At the stores that I've been to very recently, I've seen that almost all brands of 48x-rated CD-R's say "Made in Taiwan" on their packages. And of those, all but one brand use media made by one of the two worst manufacturers: I've seen Maxell 48x CD-R's made by Ritek, Memorex and Imation 48x CD-R's made by CMC Magnetics, and Philips and TDK 48x CD-R's made by both CMC Magnetics and Ritek. The one brand that is "made in Taiwan" but doesn't appear to use either of those two manufacturers is Sony (but I don't know which company makes their 48x CD-R's without buying a package and running the ATIP info on them).
The only brand that I've found recently to use Taiyo Yuden-manufactured CD-R's is Fuji. But not all Fuji 48x CD-R's are made by Taiyo Yuden in Japan; in fact, I've run across Fuji color CD-R's made by Ritek in Taiwan. Their plain and spiral-style CD-R's are "made in Japan" - but only the plain Fuji's, sold only in spindles, are the "good" Fuji's.
