Tesco CD-Rs - Are they complete junk as some seem to think?

ED E

Hey lads,

I've seen these mentioned several times before and there is always debate whether they are sh1te or not. So I thought I'd ask the experts(many of ye seem to be).

They're 12 quid for 100, that said thats useless if the music stops while I'm blasting out over my PA to a crowd. Peats have a Memorex spindle for 20, but I dont have any knowledge of that brand...Not sure what the Philips we have here cost, but they're decent disks.

So opinions? Other "bargain alerts" would be great too.
Thanks,
Lethal.

Hehe, yeah, I'm amateur but it would be very bad if the disks failed as they will be in the main part a backup.

Thanks, I'm leaning towards the Philips:)
