anyone used these before? they look pretty slick. $13 for 50 ain't bad either.

Damn good deal! I just bought 10 for $5 at Circuit City. I like them and they look cool. So far no coasters. They should leave more room for labeling though.

I got the Imation 48X 100 spindle for more or less the same amount (11.99) after mail in rebate, in the same place, you may find better deals, if you are patient and trust mail in rebates...This is not bad, though.

Oooh...cool. I want some. I read that they're not bad for cd-rs. They'd look awesome... I saw an ad in the paper for Best Buy's sale on these, but the online deal seems better.

i went ahead and ordered a spindle. if anything, they should be nice for giving out copies to friends.

Verbatim is owned by Mitsubishi Chemicals....these blanks are good. Except there's hardly any place to label the disc.

I saw those at Micro Center and thought they looked cool, but I wasn't going to pay $25 for 50. And how can you beat free shipping? Thanks for the heads up.

yup these work well.......bought me 4 packs....

 

[princeclassic]

...bought another spindle...

credit cards and college students don't mix well.....or maybe they mix too well...

I like the tiny "grooves" on the label side.

It's soooo analog.

I've been using these for a while. I love them. I like that old style dark blue recordable surface. It just looks like quality.
I had a hard time finding the speeds for them. At Verbatim's website they had it listed. They are slow, like 16x or something like that. No big deal for me, as I use them for audio only, and I record audio at no more than 8x.

I want some of these! I'm going to look at Office Depot on my way to work.

My dad had bought a ton of these because they were on sale dirt cheap (hmm, I wonder why they're on sale at super low prices all the time), and considering they're azo dye CDRS, they're probably made by Mitsubishi (not all Verbatim discs are made by Mitsubishi). They would definitely be a better option than your run-of-the-mill generic CDRs. I have, however, experienced errors with these, even when playing them on my Panasonic SL-CT570 which otherwise plays even the most badly scratched CDRs without a hitch.

If you're burning treasured music that you wish to archive permanently, use only the best: CDRs manufactured by Taiyo Yuden or Mitsui (Sony Supremas Gold are manufactured by Taiyo Yuden).

Where (preferably online) can one pick up some of these higher end CDRs?

Edit: N/M, I've been referred to a place and ordered some.
