[Dixielandjazz] Re: Recording CDs

[Cees van den Heuvel]

Imation makes various colours. Kodak a.o. make 
golden ones. Parrot makes black ones. Arita makes
golden ones, but as I said most are silver nowadays,
and things improved. There are even discs with a special
coating. Just google for details and availability.

Cheers,

             B.t.w. none of my "gold" CD's deteriorated.


  I asked:


             What's a "gold" CD?


  Cees responded:


  The surface that you burn can have various colors
  from black (never had any problems with them also)
  via red blue etc. Nowadays mostly silver is used.
  Or a gold color (e.g. Kodak discs). Of course 
  it's no real scientific test, but in my case the old
  golden ones never failed, independent of the brand.


  My reaction:


              I need to get out more.  The only ones I recall seeing are silver.
