4.0 out of 5 stars Verbatim CD-R media - mostly reliable for audio, January 10, 2007

I use this media in large quantities to make audio CDs for clients at my recording studio. I have used Verbatim DataLife media for at least a decade. While I do not have the equipment to do rigorous testing, I have noticed that in the last two or three years, it has become typical for my CD burner to reject 3 or 4 discs per hundred.

On the other hand, I have never had a problem with any successful burn, and I have never had a duplicator return a CD-R master, except in one case where the fault was attributable to a technical problem in the mastering- not the media itself.

I will note that paper labels to not adhere as well to the printable media as they do to regular media. Labels are usable, but care must be taken to smooth and press them into place.

In conclusion, Verbatim DataLife is still a good medium, but there seems to be a small but noticeable decline in quality control in recent years.

Verbatim, along with Taiyo-Yuden and Mitsui, makes some of the best CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. My only problem with them is their inkjet-printable white ones, which look the best, somewhat resist Sharpie markers, clogging up the tips so I have to make two or three passes with the marker sometimes.

5.0 out of 5 stars My current favorite., February 2, 2012

I like these not only for the printable label side, but because they use a higher-contrast recording surface than most CD-Rs. Higher contrast = better readability. In fact, these look pretty similar to Verbatim's archival MediDisc CD-Rs. They make no such claim, and I certainly don't have any inside information, but so far they have proven to be 100% reliable for me.
