Hard to tell the difference between CD's from various makers but the Sony CD's have always worked well for me.

I did not purchase the SONY discs from Amazon, so this review should in no way be attributed to anything related to Amazon's sales or shipping.

I found these discs on sale at a local big box retailer. I'd never purchased SONY brand CD-R(s) previously, but loved the multicolored discs and plastic jewel cases. I was slightly concerned when I could not find any information regarding recording speed anywhere on the package. I didn't want to pass on a bargain, so went ahead and purchased the box.

I have now written six discs which had errors. This is unlike Verbatim or Maxell, which I have used without a glitch on several machines. I still had a few clean Verbatim discs, because I was concerned that there was a problem with my DVD/CD writer. No. The problem appeared totally related to these SONY discs. I get "partial" writes on some. Others appear to have written without error and, when played, begin to skip around like a hyperactive child.

I have tried burning the discs I bought on both a desktop and laptop machine, running two different operating systems and in both tests: bad results. Maybe I got a bad batch? If so, Sony's quality control leaves a lot to be desired. I will never again buy these disks. They make nice coasters and I can reuse the plastic jewel cases for my Verbatim discs, which would otherwise be stuffed into a paper sleeve. There is something not quite "industry standard" about the labeling on the package. I want to know both speed and capacity. Just providing the data "80 minutes" is insufficient: caveat emptor.

As it is a 60-mile round trip for me to return the discs, I decided to "eat" the "bargain" rather than waste 1/4 tank of gas and a couple of hours. From now on, I don't go for the glamour..I simply pay for the less expensive spindle of disks that have always worked perfectly for me, burn after burn. I'm happy to hear others have had good experiences with these discs. I wish I could say the same.
