1 out of 5 stars Worst discs I've ever used - by a mile! Absolute garbage.   July 17, 2008
I bought these some time ago to try them as they were cheap, when they were half the price they now are. So in that time, I've had a nightmare with bad discs (you've no idea) and the price has more than doubled...how do they work that one out!!! Unbelieveable. I wouldn't take these if I got them for nothing. And yes, I do mean that.

I've since binned loads of these (as has my mate) and will be doing so with the remaining 30 or so discs I have left. I cannot stess enough how crap these discs really are. I've tried a huge selection of various discs and not had even close to the problems I've had with these.

You might be lucky and get a good batch, but I would urge you not to waste your time and effort with this garbage (especially at this price - still can't get my head around that). I've used some for music tracks, using only the first part of the disc and got away with some of them, but there seems to be bad sectors in every disc, approximately two thirds of the way in, hence they may be of use for smaller files. Certainly no good for movies (VCD's).

I you already have these discs, please, please, please, check that you have the full file you think you've burned to disc, before deleting your original files. If you don't, you may regret it. I certainly do.

If you're planning on buying discs, go get the Verbatim ones (CD's and DVD's). They really are quality discs and I no longer see myself buying anything other than them.

I've just binned 49 of these-1 out of first 8 attempts produced a cd which played all the way through-worse still they seem to burn ok and even first 7 0r 8 tracks o.k. then begin to skip/drop out or just stop. So....have to spend ages checking through.
Similar make dvds were fine but I'll go elsewhere from now on.

So far I've used about 20 of these and had no failures, so I'm very happy with them. I'd definitely buy them again if I need more blank CDs.

Out of 200 only 2 didn`t work because they were the last 2 in the stack and must have warped.Otherwise,I`m very happy with this product.
