Oh...  The OP was talking about the actual burner...never made mention of 
the manufacturer of the media.  You then extended what the OP was saying to 
include "Sony Media"...but at least to me that wasn't clear since when you 
said "I recently bought a spindle of 50 CD-Rs" you didn't make it known who 
the made them.

Hummm....  I can see why it is simple to you.   :-)
