pressed cds is (a) more expensive and (b) leaves you/us with stock
on hand which if it doesn't all go means someone's left out of pocket.

I use (and we use at work) the laser 800Mb 48x ones.
Not had any problems with them.
They're gold in colour and completely blank (have no logos etc
already on them).
I get them for $38 per spindle of 100 (incl GST). They come
with no sleeves/covers/boxes. If you're interested I can post
the list of different cd blanks I can get and the prices.
Dave.
