| CMC has been making discs in Mexico for a while...Verbatim discs have also been made there for a while [at least 5 years ago, Verbatim DLP CD-R media was made there]. Made in Mexico media should be good to great.

I actually had some of those Ritek G05 DVD that would degrade! Hopefully they make better CDs... NBK |

| I believe they do make better CDs than DVDs. Nothing would beat a pack of Verbs (better yet TY CD-Rs) though to put your mind at ease. The issues that are more common with optical media now concern DVD blanks, at least with Ritek.And on the topic of MIT CD-R Verbs... All I've seen locally are MIM Daxon Verbs, pretty good for its price, and even MIMe or MII are rare if not impossible to find here. And not all MIT discs are good. |

I tend to use Taiyo Yuden CD-Rs for permanent stuff that i wish to keep for a long time. At my local Best Buy and Office Max, they are full of MII and MIMexico CD-Rs. Thanks NBK |

| Yep, seems to be common with ALL Daxon made CD-Rs never tried the DVD blanks though, the I'll scan some of my heavily degraded Daxon CD-R's to show it |
