Simply put, Taiyo Yuden CD-Rs are the best Blank CD-Recordable there is. The recording layer is Taiyo's own Cyanine (green/blue) dye, and its rock solid. You might hear other CD-R manufacturers claiming their disc have a longer shelf life, but what’s the difference if you get 10% failure rate when you burn your data?
So, you need to decide. Is it worth a few cent’s more per disc to reduce your time wasted burning coasters and make your customers happy by giving them discs that work? You may have bought hundreds of a Ritek, Prodisc, Maxell, Memorex or TDK disc and not had one problem. Consider yourself lucky. At Media Supply we’ve sold tens of millions of Taiyo Yuden CD-Rs and we can say the same thing; not one problem.
