Ritek CD-R quality?

[Merlyn3D]

Now I know ritek is one of the best for DVD-R purchases in terms of quality, but I wonder if they hold the same crown in the CD-R arena. Can anyone comment?

well i am been using maxell, tdk CDR in the past year or so...

i think as long as you stick to name brands, it should not be a problem

I wouldn't worry too much about brands for CD-Rs. Most CD-Rs work pretty well... after so many years of making them, they should at least get them right very often.

ritek is used by TDK and Fujifilm..
They are pretty much the best for CDR now that taiyo yuden is gone

yeah, ritek has always been among the best. They use those dark blue inks rather than the light green ones. I have no idea what that means, but in my experience, the dark blue CD's tend to read better when scratched up.
