Yes, the purple pattern on the CD can get in the way when labelling.

Still excellent value, even though I have to wait that little bit longer...


Not Bad, But A Few Probs...   February 18, 2004

I purchased these cd-r's mainly for storing photos from my digital camera, and for storing word files, etc - and for this purpose they are totally fine.
however...
...when i attempted to burn an audio cd, i found that i had to use a really slow burning speed. when i burnt at 10x it plays back fine on the laptop but when whacked into a stereo it plays only the first five seconds before jumping here, there and everywhere! i have found 4x to be fine, but haven't tried 8x...maybe it's me being a pc dumbo or something, but then again, maybe i'm clever and these cd's are a bit pantish.
the only other complaint i have is that on the cd surface there is no room to write properly, as it has a coloured gloss covering much of the disk surface. you can still write on it, but if you got purple ones like myself it can be hard to read sometimes.
other than these small blips, they are a quality purchase.


Great Item, Easy to Use   February 18, 2004
I've gone through several spindles of these cd's now and find them fantastic. My burner is fussy and rejects a good many other brands of cd's, but I've never had a problem with these.

Like others I bought 50 of these waste of space discs and haven't been able to get a single recording to work with my computer freezing every time. I have even upgraded my burning software to a newer edition (Nero 6) but to no avail. Other cheap discs (really crappy Maxell 4x speed!) work perfectly. I'm about to ask Amazon for my money back but suggest you direct yours elsewhere.
