Advantages: Price

Disadvantages: Couldnt find any but there are rumors....

What can I write about Tesco CD'rs. Although lot of people actually says that we should stay away from value CD and DVD's I find Tesco CDrs useful and very solid. I have never been dissapointed.

The most important thing is the price. You get 52 700 MB CDs for as far as I remember 9,99 and thats a bargain. Off course you can invest in Verbatim or TDK disc which are more posh and lets say more expensive but if you have a lot of data to burn every day as a storage drive Tesco's CDs are far more better. 52 CD's thats over 35 GB of data.

You can store lots of pictures, photos, music or even a few homemade movies on one CD. There's lot of opinions that we shouldnt actually use them because they can wear our lasers more than expensive CD's. That may be true although I'm using them for more than two years (since I came here) and I've never had any problems with that.

Anyway it's up to you. I advise you to use them as a storage not to play everyday just in case I've been wrong.

Summary: Use as as a storage

The idea that cheap CD-Rs would wear out the lasers on your drive is a myth - there's nothing to worry about here.
However, cheaper media is not as robust, and can be more easily affected by the UV radiation in sunlight - so don't leave them on your windowsill!
