Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Ya know....
The SIZE of the CD might have something to do with it... I have a buddy whos car player won't play disks burned with more than 640mb of data/audio - (won't play if they aren't 'fixated' either) Are these CD's straight copies of existing ones, or compilations?

New Re: Ya know....
True the CD should be closed to any additional writing if you want it to work in older players

New Copies of the originals
and yes they have been closed after being burned.

Question: "Are those CD-R Music CDs for Audio Recording any better than Data CDRs?" are they worth the extra money to buy?

I think I would be better off buying 1X to 4X CDR disks, after all the Audio Players cannot play at any rates higher than that. Who needs a 16X or higher CDR disk?

New Easier said than done
the CD player is the on built into the car. My wife wants me to curb expenses so we can save up money in case we need it later, or to go to a visit to Thailand to see her mother before she has another heart attack or something else.

So much stuff I want to buy, but I have to put it off and make do with what I have for now.

So far the Silver Dye CDR seems to be working 100% of the time that I play it, the Blue Dye CDRs only work 10% to 30% of the time. Right now I am playing one of the Blue Dye CDRs on my PC as I write this, so I know that the disk is good.

New The "audio CD-Rs" are a marketing gimmick.
They are also the only ones that work in the consumer CD Recorder decks because the decks look for a special signature. They're more expensive ostensibly so that royalties for whatever you're going to copy can be paid.

If you're burning music on a PC, the "music CD-Rs" are a genuine waste of money.
