 ... Technologies - how attractive?), although the company still operates in the same way. This is even explained in the inserts of the individually shrinkwrapped CD's. The CD's come packaged with red covers that are reversible to add your CD content details and the CD's themselves have space for you to mark them with special pens. They don't look very snazzy, but their simplicity saves them from sinking to tackiness; and since this is brand name stuff you can be more assured you won't get dodgy discs unlik...more

Premium Review BASF CD Media: A new weird name (EMTEC), but still good (608 words)

I've not had a CD-RW drive for more than a few weeks, and the only media I've used with it (apart from the supplied starter media) has been EMTEC CD's. As I own a 'High Speed' marked drive, I could purchase CD-R's that write upto 24 speed, but at the mo. it seems that since 16 is the de facto speed, that is still the media type you'll find in most shops. If you really are desperate for faster recording compatible media you'll probably have to look online, and that goes the same for CD-RW discs, and even other accessories. And being in a hurry to try some foreign media I quickly bagged a 10 pack of EMTEC CD-R's (1-16 speed ...

I've owned a CD writer for over two years now, originally starting with a Freecom 2x 2x 24x, and have now upgraded to a TDK 12x 10x 32x writer with Burnproof technology. I also have used only the various versions of Ahead's Nero Burning Rom software. Over this time I have used many different forms of CDR media, unbranded blanks, branded disks on a spool and individually packaged branded disks and I've noticed some things over this time. Unbranded disks are on the whole unreliable, both at the time of writing and later when you come to read the data off them. Some of my earliest disks have become un-readeable over time and I can only assume ...

If you are looking for cheap branded cds to back up, copy and store information on your computer and you have a writeable CD player, then they don’t come much cheaper than BASF CDs. I was looking for some blanks to store information on at home that I needed to take into work. Zip drives are fine but you can hold 6 times more info on a CD than A zip Tape. After looking in PC world, Currys and Dixons, the cheapest I could come up with were the BASF ones. For a pack of 10, you will pay £8.99 at Dixons. That’s less than £1 a CD. Most of the others such as Sony,Ricoh and Maxell were almost £15 for a pack of 10. So you are saving at least £6 on ...
