    After burning 100 CD-R's (about 1 year later)I can say these CD's have burnt with a 0% error rate at 12x using a Plextor 24/10/40A drive I originally thought they where 40x reading not from the spindle but from a similar 10 pack I saw at the store so it's very possible they where not 40x at all. They read well & have a more durable label side than Kodak Ultimas. I can't really comment on the long term issues related with CD-R's because I haven't really do any direct testing but every CD (I don't have all 100)I burnt & have with me still works (other than a very few badly scratched ones).
