I recently bought a 30 pack of Memorex write-once CD blanks. So far, I've burnt about ten of them, and I've had 2 blanks that were bad out of the box. The burner rejected them before I was able to do anything. Is this par for the course when buying packs of "discount" blanks? I'm just wondering if I want to spend $$ on Memorex again or if this is fairly typical. -Bill -- "Where's the robot to pat you on the back?"
