You made coasters on non-sony drives. You have used a Sony CD burner
and it can burn the CDs...and Sony is on your "no-buy list"? Sorry,
the logic escapes me.
It seems I can't burn Sony media on any of my non-Sony drives. I don't
care to speculate on buying any more Sony media, and since I've been
happy so far with Pioneer drives I plan to buy Pioneer drives into the
future when I have the need.
It happens that TDK DVD media check out okay using info from the
website I mentioned, and those can be bought in any lof the local
supermarkets and variety stores, so buying those is pretty simple.
Logic seems simple to me:-)
Oh... The OP was talking about the actual burner...never made mention
of the manufacturer of the media. You then extended what the OP was
I was thinking he might extrapolate and try the reverse; see whether he
can burn Sony media.
saying to include "Sony Media"...but at least to me that wasn't clear
since when you said "I recently bought a spindle of 50 CD-Rs" you didn't
make it known who the made them.
<whack>
I see why you were confused:-)
Hummm.... I can see why it is simple to you. :-)
I hope it's clear now; I can't burn my Sony media in non-sony drives.
btw I think the combinations I have tried with the Sony media are
Pioneer drives in Linux (two systems, EL4-clone and EL5-clone) and with
Windows XP.
