Which CDR is the best for audio?

I've never been able to hear the difference between anything that actually plays. The only difference between cd-r brands which is obvious to me is in how long they last.

Why would you want to play disks with the CDROM? Just rip them to hard disk and play from memory. It's a computer, so you can use it this way. It is superior to CDROM playback.

Mistui Gold is a lot better than Taiyo Yuden. I did some side by side comparing and it was plain than the Mitsuis are better. Also good with a little different flavor is Apogee Gold. Also something else to check out would be the new Mobile Fidelity Gold discs. Taiyo Yuden is tempting since they are so cheap, but if sound is what matters then go Mitsui

I have been able to get the Mitsuis from CDW, www.cdw.com. they are about $1.oo each.

I have done a lot of side by side comparing of bland CDRs and I think there is a big difference among them. I seriously dissagree with anyone who thinks they all sound the same

Both brands are fine. Contrary to popular belief, however, CDR's do in fact sound different. Buy gold disks (such as the Mitsuis), and stay away from Memorex.
