Ritek/Ridata
ProDisc

The 2 brands that I have had 2 coasters out of 400+ Both had visible defects on the disc, thus the reason the burn wasn't successful.

The best I know of is Taiyo Yuden media if you need it to last more than just a few years. Many of the name brand media are made by them but there's no way of knowing without reading the codes on the disc.

This is the article that got me started using them: http://www.wired.com/news/digiwood/0,1412,66911-2,00.html?tw=wn_story_page_next1

I archive a lot of files and much to my dismay I found discs becoming unreadable after only 3 years.

Ritek used to be very good as well, but not sure how they stand nowadays.

Anything you buy in the store is a crap shoot - the big names buy it from all kinds of different sources and then brand them. Anything sell on sale is generally cheap quality.

Taiyo Yuden

At the moment nothing is comparable.. Except obviously certain brands that use Taiyo discs, such as memorex.
