the cheap cds are cool to take ur weekly backups n so but not reliable when use dto write movies n songs which keeps on being distributed among frenz n used much.

a cd cant be of 4.7 gb. as only dvd format supports such high capacities. check the ad again for any such notice.

i dont thinks quality of spuper x cd is good.
they sell the cd cheap because manufacture use cheap material to made the cd. so cd may not be useful in the long run. and it may damage the surface of ur drive.
so i think it will be better to go for mouserbear cd or sony cd.

Not reliable.Many a times just sticking a tape n removing it harshly may cause an entire film 2 spoil or tear out. This determines the quality of the CD.

100% right. That has happened many a times with Palika bazaar CD's. The media just gets ripped out when it touches the sticky tape at the end of the CD cover!!

All those CD's I bought for a cheaper price are useless now. The branded ones keeps and protects the data better.....

In the US cds are really cheap.IF you have a pal or a relation coming to India just ask him to get you some.thats what I did.Its really cheap man.On the other hand never buy from the Uk.Its very costly more than India.

LAST WEEK I CONFIRMED WITH STATIONERY SHOP. UROVISION CD IS OF 700 MB ITSELF AND NOT 4.3 GB. THIS IS COSTING 11 AT THAT SHOP. IT IS MADE BY USING SILVER. HENCE MANUFATURER CLAIMS ABOUT GOOD QUALITY. THAT WHAT THEY WERE GIVEN IN THE AD.

Buying cheap cds means to put a writer on a risk. Their fibre quality is too bad hence the life of the writer (How much cds total it can burns) will be dramatically reduced. Also the risk of disk breakage is always their because writer rotates cds at very high rpm (Round Per Minute) especially the new 52x series in writers. So, I like to buy only the trusted media like Moser Baier, Sony, Samsung, HP. Their prices in my city are as following:- Moser Baier = Rs. 10 each, Sony = Rs. 13, Samsung = Rs.13, HP= Rs.20.
