It's been awhile since this came up and time keeps on grinding away and 
things keep changing, SO... what's the latest on which brand of CD 
blanks to buy? Which common brands have the lowest error rate(s) and the 
highest longevity? Remember when we had to look for "Made in Japan" or 
"Made in Taiwan" on the box to get decent quality? All the others (Made 
in China, Viet Nam, Indonesia, etc.) were pretty much crap. Does this 
still apply?
And, one more thing, what's the best site that gives current CD-R test 
results?
Here's one I found quickly:

Are they reliable? Is there better?
Happy... er... joyous... ah... merry... um... that is to say... 
Hohohohohohohoho, gang!
