"25 Frisbees!!!"
At less than a dollar per frisbee, this is the best price I can find for frisbees. They don't fly very well and they break relatively easily, but this is the best value I can find for 25 frisbees in one place.

A lot of people are disappointed because they expect to be able to use these discs as rewritable CD media. The problem with that is, they don't work very well for that either. I, too, tested this for myself.

Using Nero Burning ROM, I tried many times to burn different kinds of data onto several of the discs -=AT 4X=-, just like you're supposed to. IT WORKED! It burned fine. Then it took 5 minutes to open a simple HTML document on the burned disc. Subsequent trials run with the "Verify Written Data" checkbox checked revealed that every other sector or so was unreadable after burning. It's like writing with a white crayon, except this is white paper. This persisted on several OTHER computers with different CD burner drives and even different software.

I finally realized what great frisbees these things are. Cheer up people: THEY ARE GREAT FUN! So grab your spindle, go outside, and start chucking these things at your neighbor's annoying dog. =D

"very low quality product"
before i can actually burn on any of these cd-rw's i have to do about five "quick erases" on BOTH of my cd-roms (doesn't work if i try it even 20 times on just one cd-rom), before that - gives plenty of writing errors.. plus - half of the cd-roms i tried to use these cd's on refused to read them.. buy something else..

p.s. "is it live or is it memorex?" the label states.. it is dead and it is memorex..

"not rewritable"
These are the worst CD-RW discs on the market. They are NOT rewritable and should be sold as CD-Rs. Look elsewhere as in any where else for rewritable discs.

"Your time is more valuable than money...."
I have tried one hundred of these CD-RWs on three different burners (the first 50 were sent back to the manufacturer at my expense). The results are as follows: 70% will not complete the writing process. 10% completed the writing process but were illegible at a later use. 15% would not write a second time, and only 5% were reliable beyond 2 writes and multiple reads.

You might say "hey these are relatively inexpensive, so even if some don't work, I am still ahead of the game." The reality is these CD-RWs will be a big time sink for you. Your PC will stall and stammer, your drive will make strange noises, often for several minutes, as it attempts to read these CDs. Writing is even a bigger waste of time - you will be alerted there was an error in the writing process while 10 - 15 minutes into the process (being only 4X).

My advice is to buy the competitor's higher price version and save your TIME (and get value for your money).

PS: I see the price of the competitor's equilavent item is now lower than this brand, so choosing is a "no-brainer".
