The Yamaha Blaster is a legend in its own right. It has been in production for many a year now and has sold in large numbers worldwide.

Older CD players were built before recordable CDs were even thought of, and since a CD-R does not comply fully with the original specification for an audio CD, play-back could not be guaranteed, until recently that is.....
