my advise: buy some cheap ones, see how it goes. if you are not in it for archiving purposes but rather for car-music you do not need the best of the best. I have been using Sony and no-name cheap-o CDrs for some time now and they are just swell. if you have a high quality burner, it will hardly ever spoil a disk. I have had two duds up till now from a series of well over a hundred disks. the little extra something in audiophile quality that these expensive disks may provide is lost when you record from LP (lots of noise) or when you listen in the car (even more noise)
