If only I had on ONLINE falcon and J.SCHAPER heard! As the owner of a CD recorder (Philips CDR 870) I had never previously had a bad experience with audio blanks. After reading the above reviews, I was looking for blanks. Decided I was then, despite knowing better, for concoctions from TDK, because had pointed me amazon that I had bought about 2 years ago already. Since I, as I said, with my recorder never had problems, I thought that then yes nothing can happen. Forget it! I have in my desperation some inserted to but always get an error message. So, stay away. What has happened in the two years at the company TDK, I do not know. Whether it is due to the "Made in India"?
