CD-RW works on Sony 9000ES

I bought them in a 5-pack for about $6.

Thanks Darrell: That is approx, triple what I paid for CDR's (on sale), but still isn't bad at all.

I have tried this very CD-RW and could not get it to play. It would read the disk and knew the number of tracks--but would not play. Most of the brands just return an error. My pioneer plays just about everything (CD-R, CD-RW all brands that I have tried). I tried to find this information from Sony--they were of no help and told me it is beyond their scope. You can see their full response under "Best and Worst Customer Service" in the A-gon forums.

I just bought my Sony 9000ES, maybe mine has some updated software that allows it to read the RW's.

Could it be that the CD burner you are using is in some way compatible with the Sony, and not necessarily the discs themselves?
