Revainrating 5 out of 5

Extremely reliable: Blank CD-Rs

I had a CD collection of over 5,000 CDs that my ex took over after our divorce. Luckily I have copied each of the CDs to my computer in case any of them are ever lost or damaged. Little did I know that I would end up burning the entire collection! I've used many different brands of blank media, but every brand had at least one or two, and sometimes many more, defective discs that ended up in the trash. Then I came across Smart Buy Discs. I've looked through at least six hundred of their disks so far and not only are they insanely cheap, but I haven't had a defective disk! I only had to throw away 3 or 4 because of my own stupid mistakes. An added bonus is that the discs are unprinted, giving me total freedom to choose how to label them. Before I bought my first set of discs, I read several reviews that said it was difficult to know which side to pick up. In fact, it's very easy, almost inconveniently, to determine which side to burn! Each CD has a tiny rim that goes around the center hole and is about an inch and a half in diameter, sticking out maybe a sixteenth of an inch. This is the burning page. One look at each page and it's a dead sale. I've never turned a disc upside down! In short (too late!) Smart Buy CDs are the best audio format purchase I've ever made in my life, and for that long I'll be a customer!

Pros
  • Blank CD-Rs
Cons
  • There are even more interesting options.
