Excellent CDs with low errors and durability

For masters, references or other important audio work, this is a great choice. In this case, the old adage "you get what you pay for” applies. I've bought many types of CDRs, often from Office Depot or elsewhere; sometimes they were fine; otherwise, one in three would be a stand. As a mixing and mastering engineer, I can't afford to hand out unplayable CDs to customers, so I turn to them on important matters. Having burned hundreds of them and tested them with Plextor's error checking software, I've never had one with more errors than the most conservative duplication (replication) companies would consider acceptable. You could also make great data CDs. those with a white ceramic laminate upper tend to have more flaws despite being more expensive. These CDRs might seem a bit odd - shiny and a bit thinner than the usual brands - but they have a great protective coating on top and strict manufacturing standards that haven't been abandoned now that JVC is distributing them.
