Not really, they have pretty well evolved into a commondity component
now.

Discs, no, drives, yes.

Buy SONY only, true of almost all electronics. Cost a wee more but look in
Yahoo! shops. I got a closeout16/10/40x not long ago for like $55

And if you look around, cheap too!! Compuvest.com to name just one place. A
Lite-On 52X32X52X in bulk packaging goes for $41.42.

I bought a generic (I/O Magic) burner at OfficeMax last month (52x24x52) for
$15.00 after a $30.00 rebate. It's got a one-year warranty, and has worked
great so far. I'll wait to spend more money on a burner when DVD burners come
down a little in price. Otherwise, the Lite-On models get good reviews, and
most of them come with Nero.

As far as CDR media, I buy the made in Japan FUJI brand as they are made by
Taiyo Yuden, and cost $15.00 for a 50 count package. I don't use CD-RW media so
I cannot comment on them.

I second that. T-Y media has been good in any burner I've used.

Sony products are overpriced and their warranty support is nonexistant.

Lite-On here for cd-r/rw and dvd+r/rw.

Good dollar to what you get ratio. I've been using Liteon optical drives and
Western Digital hard drives for years now. Seagate, Maxtor and IBM suck the
ripe banana....
