Standard CD-R

Works great,just as should

They all showed up in good condition, and I burned my first CD on one of these! It came out great, highly recommend. Keep in mind though that video and audio are different, it's 80 min of audio not video! Great price as well, got these on a bit of a sale. 50 discs for 13 bucks is a fantastic price! They have lines for writing down names which is nice, keep in mind though that not every marker can write on a CD!

Good price for the quantity of CD's you get. Our business uses a lot of CD's and haven't had any issues with CD's being rejected during the burning process. Burn rate is good and as long as you aren't loading a lot of images or movies the size is great.

Verbatim is the only brand of CDs I would buy. Price is decent for 100 pack.

---Pro's... -Price (about $18 for a Verbatim 100-pack of CD-R's which means about $0.18 per disc) -Verbatim brand (everyone knows that generally speaking Verbatim and TY (Taiyo Yuden) make the best optical media. but on Verbatim media you generally want the 'Azo' discs, which these CD-R's in this review are not) -Better than average overburn capacity for standard audio CD's (while standard CD-R's only are officially rated for up to 80 minutes I can confirm these discs (which I bought in April 2022) will overburn (with ImgBurn v2.5.8.0) to at least 82min15sec(82:14:66) successfully (assuming your CD burner can overburn CD-R's which most probably can) and it shows up as 82min12sec on my original CD player, which has a April 1991 mfg date on it, and plays without issue. NOTE: to overburn a standard audio CD with ImgBurn you basically go to 'Tools > Create CUE File...' and then drag-and-drop your WAV files (standard 16bit/44.1kHz) into there (you can tweak the 'CD-TEXT' stuff if you want to but I won't get into this for now as it's not that important in general) and simply keep a eye on the total run time and then save the '.cue' file and then go to 'Mode > Write' and then simply drag-and-drop the '.cue' file you created (the cue and wav files should be in the same directory on your computer!), check total 'Time', set your write speed to 16x, and then proceed to burn is the gist of it. but when you try to burn a standard audio CD beyond the usual 80 minute limit it will ask if you want to 'overburn' or 'truncate', select 'overburn' when you get to this screen and it will attempt the overburn. TIP: I suggest getting all of your audio files setup through Foobar2000 (free software) first before transferring it to ImgBurn to burn since you can check total runtime etc through Foobar2000 first. this makes the ImgBurn burning process nice and smooth. this is optional but I recommend it since Foobar2000 is the best general audio playback program and basic audio conversion program available. NOTE: once you install Foobar2000 you will also probably need to install the 'Foobar2000 Encoder Pack' (and maybe additional software depending on what your doing but I won't get into this for now) to get proper conversion between MP3 back to WAV etc (see TIP below as it's best to avoid MP3 back to WAV!) so ImgBurn can use it. TIP: for best audio quality (and this has nothing to do with the CD-R's themselves) it's best to ALWAYS rip from original audio CD's to WAV or FLAC format (FLAC is a lossless audio format but only takes up roughly half of the storage space of WAV files with no reduction in sound quality) and NOT go from MP3 back to standard AUDIO CD WAV format because the standard audio CD you are creating will only output sound as good as the MP3 and MP3's are not a lossless audio format. but with that said... you can still go from MP3 back to WAV files and burn a standard audio CD but it's best to use WAV/FLAC when burning a standard audio CD for maximum sound quality since those, assuming were ripped from original CD, will be max sound quality unlike MP3's. but with that said, if the MP3 is of high enough sound quality to begin with, it's pretty safe for me to say most people won't be able to tell the difference between a original audio CD and a audio CD made from MP3's (or the like). ---Con's... -CMC Magnetics media code (these are phthalocyanine dye, not the 'Azo' discs (with the Mitsubishi dye) which are of higher quality (and only cost roughly $3-5 more per 100-pack) but given the low price of these and Verbatim's reputation they are still likely 'good enough', especially for standard audio CD's and I expect they will last at least years, maybe decades. I just would not put too much trust in these in terms of long term data storage like I do with the Azo types of media which I just use DVD since they hold about 6.7 times the data that CD-R's do and their cost is not much more and you can check the quality of DVD-R/+R media on a Liteon DVD burner with a program called KProbe etc with PIE/PIF's but I won't get into that for now which when it comes to CD-R media only a limited amount of drives can properly check the C1/C2 errors, which none of the drive I have can do a proper disc quality check on CD-R's (with the exception of the Liteon 24102b), but I can on DVD-R/+R discs. but this generally won't be a problem since I don't really store any critical data on these CMC Magnetics Verbatim CD-R's. but with the Azo Verbatim discs (CD or DVD) they will likely last AT LEAST decades since I got Verbatim DVD-R and +R media about 10-15 years old and still work great and even the KProbe scan is still similar to when I first burned those discs and I figure if there is no obvious degradation of these discs by now, they will almost certainly last for the foreseeable future, which means decades more. ---Additional Info and tips... -For standard AUDIO CD's, which is primary what I got these for, I suggest using ImgBurn v2.5.8.0 and burn at 16x write speed. NOTE: ImgBurn's interface is not super easy to use in terms of creating standard audio CD's but it's not difficult as you just use the 'Tools > Create CUE File...' section to do it. -I recommend using a desktop burner NOT a laptop burner since desktop burners will generally be more reliable and of better quality. so in other words... if you have trouble burning discs with errors on a laptop, try a desktop before claiming the CD-R's are bad because most likely it's a burner fault and not a disc fault, especially from a quality brand like Verbatim (although it's possible one could get a faulty batch once in a while (or that certain audio CD players just happen not to like these disc etc) but generally speaking if you have problems, playing the odds, it's your burner. TIP: make sure your running the newest firmware for your CD/DVD burner (this is software inside of the CD/DVD burner itself the drive uses to figure out the proper write strategy etc) as this can potentially solve burn quality issues! -While I have a total of three DVD burners (Sony Optiarc 7240s(from 2009)/Liteon iHAS324B(from 2011)/Liteon 1673s(from 2005)) and two CD burners(Liteon 24120b (mfg date is Dec 2001)/HP which has a May 2000 mfg date (I don't really use the HP burner since it's the worst of the five burners I got) and all are running the newest firmware), I have been using my Sony Optiarc 7240s (which I have had since 2009) with ImgBurn on the seven or so Verbatim CD-R discs I have burned so far from this 100-pack and all work fine on my original CD player (Panasonic RX-DS620) which has a April 1991 mfg date on it and a Panasonic SC-EN5 which has a May 2003 mfg date on it. NOTE: I am using ImgBurn v2.5.8.0 on Linux Mint v20.3-Xfce through Wine v6.0.1 (which I setup through PlayOnLinux (sudo apt install playonlinux)) (NOTE: Wine must be set to Windows XP mode (Wine defaults to Windows 7 mode) otherwise it will freeze at the splash screen!). but just about everyone reading this will be using ImgBurn on Windows so all of this Linux/Wine stuff does not apply to you (and you can ignore this)! TIP: if ImgBurn cannot see your CD/DVD burners, go to "Tools > Settings > I/O" and change the default of 'ASPI' to 'SPTI - Microsoft' and for 'SPTI - Device Enumeration Method' change that to either 'Device Interface' or 'Drive Letter' and press OK and it will now most likely see your burners. bottom line... 4 out of 5 stars. I only removed 1 star because these are CMC Magnetics instead of the superior Mitsubishi dye you see on the 'Azo' media which, given what we now know with the passage of time, the Azo discs will likely 'easily' last decades without failure when stored half way decently. CMC Magnetics might be 'okay' to and last years, possibly decades, but they are more of a gamble vs Azo media as a general rule.

Shipped perfectly and amazing quality, exactly what I needed to burn some cds to use in my car

Reliable CDs That Still Get the Job Done It feels almost nostalgic to be using CD-Rs again, but these Verbatim discs reminded me why the format was so popular in the first place. They’re simple, reliable, and surprisingly versatile even in 2025. I’ve been using this spindle mainly for making music mixes and archiving some older files that I don’t necessarily need on a cloud or external drive, and so far every disc has burned smoothly without a single error. The 52x write speed is more than enough for modern burners, and each disc holds the standard 700MB or 80 minutes of audio. I tested playback across a few older CD players (including one in my car that’s been picky with off-brand media), and every disc was recognized instantly. The silver surface is clean and uniform, though keep in mind it’s not the type with extra protective coating—so I’d recommend handling them carefully and storing them back on the spindle or in jewel cases if they’ll be used often. A nice plus is that they work equally well for data or music, making them a good option for anyone who still needs physical media for backups, sharing mixes, or archiving. Considering how some no-name brands can have higher failure rates, the reliability here is worth it. Bottom line: If you still use CD-Rs, Verbatim continues to be one of the most dependable names—these discs burn quickly, play without issue, and make a solid choice for both data and music storage.

Verbatim 700MB CD-Rs continue to be my go-to for burning with zero hassle. Whether I’m archiving files, creating audio CDs, or prepping discs for retro consoles, these perform flawlessly every time. No failed burns, no weird compatibility issues—just smooth, dependable results. I’ve tested them across a range of devices: vintage CD players, modded consoles, and even older PC drives. Every one read the discs without a hitch. The burn quality is consistent, and the discs hold up well over time—no warping, no data loss. If you're into retro gaming, music archiving, or just need a reliable blank disc for everyday use, these are a no-brainer. Verbatim nailed it.

ottimo lo ricomprerei

My CD burner was playing up and stopping during the burn process. I'd been purchasing cheap branded discs from Australia Post. I bought some Emteck brand discs, which came in packets of 25- 28 discs. After being frustrated with my CD burner not completing the burn and disconnecting randomly, I decided it was time to try a different CD brand and to see if the problem persisted. It turned out that I was using a really crappy brand, and these new discs which came in a stack of 100 burned perfectly without skipping a beat. I am still a quarter way through my stack, but 25 out of 25 discs have burned all the way unlike my cheapo brand, which would let me make it through 2-3 songs until the burner slowed down. Some CD's in my old brand would complete, but burn slow while others would just fail completely. Vervatem are a really reliable brand and I will continue to use these discs.

El producto llegó en excelentes condiciones. Justo a tiempo como fue prometido durante la compra. Buen vendedor.

Skipping in audio CDs burnt with EAC (Exact Audio Copy) software. Problem not there when cheaper other brand CD-Rs used.

Good Value
