Advantages: Flawless, huge capacity Disadvantages: None thus far
I'm a bit confused. The picture on Ciao shows the CDR74, 650MB of this product but the description is that of the 700MB, CDR80 version. For the purpose of this review I'll go with Ciao's description - which is lucky because that's the one I own!
I've recently completed a TDKCD-R review but when I saw that this alternative TDK product was listed on Ciao, I felt compelled to review this too. I know, I need to get out more, but my wife and daughter are at Ikea and my son is in his room playing with his Thomas The Tank Engine tracks and trucks, so what the hell? Anyway, I'm working on my bedroom tan.......
The ins and outs of CD-Rs appears in my previous review so I won't bore you with all that again. I'll just review the product this time.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of TDK CD-R 700 MB
Advantages: Reliable Disadvantages: slightly more expensive than other brands
It would appear from the shelves that CD's are going the way of the good old Vinyl, into obscurity and beyond. With the DVD probably now the main media for saving files to with the exception of those knacky little USB drives CD's seem to be harder to come by these days. It's shame really they have served us so well over the years, and none more so than Verbatim.
I recently had cause to make a few audio CD's and therefore needed some media to put the music onto. I chose the 10 pack Verbatim CD-R700Mb, which came in at around £5 on Amazon, not bad that's only 50p a disc. I know you can get cheaper versions, but in the past I've ended up throwing more of those type away than I have actually been able to get anything onto.
As many of you will know the word Verbatim means word for word or exact, so the name itself ...
Advantages: cheap, reliable, work on a wide range of hifis Disadvantages: garish colour may put some people off
Geeks cdrs are cheap and cheerful, coming in spindle packs of fifty or a hundred, which are available in most independent computer shops and cost around £6 for 50 and £9 or so for a hundred. You can also buy them on ebay for only a few pounds more. Such a low price would indicate that they may be of less than high quality, but in my experience they are perfectly suitable both for use as data disks and audio cds.
Some audio cdrs are picky about which hifis they will play on, but I have had no such problems with geeks disks, which appear to play perfectly on a wide range of audio systems. Having burned 30 or 40 cds I have only had one failure occur during the burning process (leading to one wasted cdr), and even then it wasn't clear whether this failure was due to the disk itself or to a computer error.
Each disk holds 700mb ...
Burn, Flip, Burn. TDK LightScribe CD-R media is an all-in-one recording and labeling solution for owners of LightScribe-enabled burners. After recording content such as an important school project, digital photos or music on a TDK LightScribe CD-R, simply flip the disc over and put it back in the drive to burn a custom design directly on the disc's label-side surface. Include informative text titles and impressive graphics. You can even import digital photos and backgrounds from your favorite graphic design software. The same drive laser that records the disc creates the label, providing eye-catching results without the need for a separate disc labeling system. Create silkscreen quality labels directly on the disc with TDK LightScribe CD-R media.
