Burning speed will fluctuate.) for quick, clean data transfer. (To take full advantage of these speeds, your CD burner must burn at speeds of at least 52X. Consult your computer or CD burner product manual for this information.) At 52X, transfer speed translates to 7.8 MB/s, which means that you can burn a full disk in a minute and a half.

I'm so disappointed in this product! Half of the cds I tried to burn failed! I'm going to spend the extra money to get a name brand, what a bummer. And now I have to pay for shipping for the new ones!

These have got to be the worst quality cd's I've ever even seen let alone bought. The discs literally fall apart....the discs split in half. They also (it could be just me) seem to scratch and skip a lot easier than any other CDR media I've known. I figured something with Amazon's name all over it would represent the company's quality standard....so again, Amazon, you should be ashamed of yourself. Don't waste your money on oversized cup-coasters..go Memorex..go TDK..go Sony. Go anything but this product.

I do a lot of CD burning; with most brand names I have 99% success rate. I was excited to see these, save a buck, and patronize the best store on earth... but alas, these CDs are poor. Every third one, at least, was off balance. They rattled my burner and computer terribly. If they did write it wasn't worth the wear and tear on my rig. The packaging is poor. You can't connect the dome to the base with one hand and lift the whole spindle to move it. You need to carefully match them up with two hands to connect them in order to lift the spindle by the dome. I would recommend spending the extra buck and go TDK or Memorex. Sorry Amazon. I expected better.

I was a little leary of cd-r's that cost so little, but I have used many of them now and not had a bad one. Not to say there may not be a bad one, but after using 50 or so I'm glad to say that I've had no rejects. I use them for high quality audio book downloads and they work great. They were delivered quickly and in good shape.

I have used more than 30 of these CDs, and none have failed. No coasters! Music CDs I burned using these have played in my very old CD player and my car. No problems. They may be "Basics," but they are high-quality. The packaging is simple but sturdy. The discs arrived safely and the spindle stores them easily and securely. The only thing I wish were different is that I prefer discs without black writing on them. The dark print shows through when I label the CDs. These CDs are a good value for everyday use.
