Verbatim Lightscribe CD-R - Not Super Azo :(

| I had a very bad experience with Verbatim CMC CD-R media , just one disc that came bundled with Asus LS burner . While Daxon CD-R media (Benq CD-R) is very good , the strange thing is that my CD-MP3 player played "most" of the CMC disc fine while it couldn't readBenq CD-R at all

| I got HP Brand LS v1.0 CD-R it is Type 3 ( 25pack MIT ) about 2years ago and Verb & HP LS CD-R is currently CMC media in US |
| Damn I'm pretty annoyed guys. These CMC crap won't even work in my PS2. I keep getting the Red Screen of Death. I thought my PS2's chip was dying or something, then I whacked in some Metal Azo CD-R and some Super Azo CD-R and they both booted 100%. I tried them about 6 times, and they did not stuff up once. The CMC discs won't even boot. It's a pity because they labels look really nice.

| See if you can get some MIC, they should be super azo like mine.

 That should shed some more light on the subject I think. Btw, would a liteon combo drive be good for CD-R writing? I could probably use one to burn a couple discs and see if it works. @ Jedi_Master - Yeah I'll look around for some MIC soon. I take it that MIC would make it almost certain to be Super Azo?

| I see. Well I ordered some more but asked them prior to ordering if they were Super Azo and they said they were Version 1.2 LS Super Azo verbatims. So I should have some super azo goodness arriving in the next few days. It had better be Super Azo or I'll be bloody angry.
