4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, March 3, 2007

By	Ellen T. Gillham "Circus Antiques" (Georgia) - See all my reviews

These discs work great, although once in a great while I have had one seem to scratch easily. What disc doesn't though? Really, you are not supposed to be eating you dinner off of them. I slip mine in and out of various jewel cases or case logic sleeves all of the time, and have never really had an issue with scratching. Overall a great product and I've had only one that had a scratch/playability problem out of the past, oh, 400 that I have used. That in itself was probably my fault more than the CD's, so buy with confidence.

3.0 out of 5 stars How to kill time and the environment, April 8, 2008

By	Robert DeGutis "wavetraced" (North Brunswick, NJ, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Functionally the CD-Rs themselves are fine, but the point of the review is the rest of the packaging.

Not only is there a difficult wrapping on the outside, but some idiot poorly designed a poorly functioning dome in which you need to line up little markers and then lift, somewhat like a pill bottle. I just threw it away, no sense in needless frustration each time i need a disc. (can't recycle by me because it's a level 5 plastic, a complete waste) After that, you need to again remove more completely useless plastic wrapping from around the CD-Rs themeselves! What a waste of time and resources.

Come on Maxell, get your act together ergonomically and environmentally.

1.0 out of 5 stars no good, February 11, 2006

By	CC "hola" - See all my reviews

maxell has been one of my trusted use for blank discs for longer than i can remember.

up until sometime in 2005...when maxell changed their discs.

heres the difference

the 2004 model has the maxell guy on rhe left, and the cdr/80/700 tihng on the right. on the top it says maxell in big letters. also if you feel the background, it is a whole lot more stable. it doesnt chip easily. also the plastic used was not scratched easily.

the 2005/2006 model is a whole lot worse. it says cd-r onl eft, highlighted. on top of that it has maxell in small letters. on the right it says 80/700 and the maxell guy is right below it. the top of the disc is obviously used with cheaper material, and it scratches easily.

another thing noticeable from the two is burn errors. ive had no burn errors at all with either of the 2004 models (regular or music). on the 2005 model at least 80% failed.

also when using nero express i tested imation and sony cd-rs just to make sure my recorder was ok. imation had a 10% fail rate and sony had a 0% fail rate...my recorder works fine.

also, i tried burning at slower speed with no better results.

why would imation and sony work on my computer and maxell wouldnt. because maxell cd-rs are garbage. avoid at all costs get imation sony or get maxell but only if the discs look like i explained on the 2004 modle becuase those were literally the best cdrs ive ever owned.
