Well, I am using fairly cheap ones (Comp USA house brand - $19.95 for
50, on sale).  I use them for offloading data too, and have no trouble
with them at all data-wise. I even burned a 4.0-install CD from the
ISO image on the ftp site in case of emergency, and it boots and reads
just fine. I guess maybe audio players are more picky? Perhaps they're
designed that way to prevent copying?
