I have been hearing that Memorex is the Queen of Hell CDR's......Im just wondering are all of them bad??.. CMC is a company that produces them for a reputable name as Memorex.
Im quite surprise that the outsourcing of jobs are not only affecting America but also the products of tech.
thanks a bunch again.

the DVDs memorex sells are terrible, but I've been using their CDRs for years and never had any problems.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:

Ever scan them backups with Nero and see what kinf of quality write scores you get? I don't get high quality scores using Memorex media and recommend to avoid this media. I get great quality writes(CD-R/DVD+R) using Taiyo Yuden media(Sony/FujiFilm/Maxell Pro) made in Japan if purchased in the U.S.A. I also get great quality writes using Verbatim media too.
