    Taiyo Yuden are pretty good data-CD's. Since audio files also qualify as data, I would say they're good for audio.

    Use the search, use the search! The web devs did't program it for nothing!

    TY are one of the best brands you can get. Premium product, made in Japan. I've been hearing of some amazing deals for Fuji-branded TY media in the States. If you live in the US and you have a drive that likes TY discs (most do) I'd jump on them.

    To skylinedo... Audio is written on the disc differently from data. Data represents just 0's and 1's written on the disc, whereas audio is written differently, in packets. It is more complex then just data. They are spread over the disc with some overlapping. A damage or loss of some data in a packet does not necessarily lead to the loss of info on the disc.

    data2000,

    Actually audio discs don't have error correction coding but data discs do, which explains why you can fit 800megs of audio on a disc, while data only 700megs.

    Hi .org,

    Are you are talking CD-R for Audio, or just CD-R? I thought the guy was talking CD-R for data/audio. It all boils down to different format of writing data. But you made a good point too (just to keep in the back of ones head). Good on you...

    data2000,

    Only difference in between CD-R Audio and CD-R is the copyright fees. No technical difference there.

    To further comment your post:

    Audio is not written in packets. Audio does not overlap in any way. Damage on the disc always results data loss in audio, but audio players have strong error correction routines to 'fill the gaps'.
