3.0 out of 5 stars Good, But a Word of Warning..., December 15, 2004

These CD-Rs will work with most systems. 95% of mine recorded just fine. The only problem I had was that over time, the white coating on the CD has started to peel off. This hasn't happened to all my discs, but a few of them have started to chip, causing problems with the playback.

In general, these are pretty good budget price CDs for everyday use. But if you're looking for something to save your songs or data for a long period of time, choose something else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Glitch Free discs, and they work in my car, March 11, 2004

The odd thing about CD-R's is that certain manufacturers work in come players, but not in others. When a tech friend first mentioned that to me, I didn't believe it. So here's how it works. I have a regular Kenwood CD player (this does not apply to newer players who are CD-R-RW capable) My Kenwood will accept Memorex CD-R discs without any glitches. Sony's on the other hand don't work.
My brother also has a Kenwood CD in his car, and oddly enough the Memorex don't work in his car, but the Sony's do. So even within the same manufacturer, not even the same discs work. So if you have an older player, that is designed to play regular CD's find your manufacturer that works with your player, and load up on them. For me the Memorex works great.

Another interesting thing is that my older CDRW drive had a max speed of 6X. Unless I set it to record at only 2X, it would have skips. The new technology is great. I bought a Lite On CDRW which is a 52x32x52x, and it records a full speed without a single skip. So buying discs that run at 52x is a dream. I record a whole album in such a little bit of time, I can't believe it.
I never have a skip or any kind of problem with these Memorex discs, and the price here at Amazon is great. So I highly recommend them.

1.0 out of 5 stars Thought it was my burner, but...., January 25, 2006

I have used Memorex in the past with no problems. I bought a couple 50 packs spindles and burned abour 20 of them with no problem. Then the next one failed at he beginning of recording, and the next and the next and the next. In all, I have had about 15 failures in a row on both my laptop and desktop computers. At first, I thought my burner went bad, but I tried some Fuji disks that I had (recording the same thing) and they worked every time. I can not record any music or data files on these Memorex disks. Even if Memorex would replace them, I want something I can trust.
