CDR reviews on TDK CDR media? (CMC Magnetics)

[MIDIman]

Looking for some reviews on CDR media. I know Taiyo Yuden's are generally the best, but I want to see reviews as to why and why not. Would like to pick up some TDK's today, but I'm not sure if CMC's are any good.

Appreciate it

Don't know about recently, but CMC for years has generally been considered the bottom of the barrel. Ritek used to be down there but has moved up in the past few years to putting out some decent stuff.

If you look around at some of the CD-RW sites and forums, you can find test results on different media. A lot of what goes into the judging is longevity and data error rates.
