I'm about to do a major backup/CD burning of music on my PC, and I am not sure what brand would be good for this. I've used Memorex in the past, but sometimes I'd get CDs with bugs in them or I'd get an error in the process of burning. Anyone know of some good brands that are reliable and I'll get my money's worth for?

All the media they sell in the stores is pretty much crap. TDK is OK, used to be a lot better when they used Japanese media, now they use Taiwanese crap. Kodak is still decent, but expensive. Memorex used to use Tayo Yuden but switched, and Maxell used to be good too, but has also switched OEM's.
That link will take you to some of the best media you can buy for the price, I promise you. I've done lots of testing on various media, and tons of reading. You can do some of your own at club.cdfreaks.com Lots of great info there. If price is no object, Tayo Yuden is the absolute best media you can buy:

OK I lied. It seems Memorex has switched again, and their Black discs are RiTEK, same OEM that I posted in that Newegg link. Which means Memorex media now kicks ass again.
Some reading material for you on RiTEK media :
Also, seems Sony has stepped it up as well, and also makes good media which you can see tests of on that same site.
CD media isn't near as tempormental as DVD media any more, seems you can't go wrong as long as you buy name brand and not generic."The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws." - Tacitus (55-117 A.D.)

I havent bought memorex recently - but the ones I had tried - failed so many times it was ridicoulous; the cdrw's I could not get to burn more than once - dont know if they have improved recently - but I have no desire to try them again soon.
just my opinion.....Freak in the morning, Freak in the evening, aint no other Freak like me thats breathing....

Re-read my first post there stottman. That site has Taiyo for a decent price, still too expensive IMO, and RiTeK is almost as good for less then half the price.
