Fuji is carried @ Best Buy... made by Taiyo Yuden. ~$24 for 50. It's rated @ 32X but runs quite well @ 40X... even 48X.

Trust me, you don't want to go cheap on your media. LiteOn's are picky drives when it comes to CDRs... better quality you put in, less errors and greater compatibility you get.

As Farad said, look for the screw top on the top of the spindle. That's a dead giveaway that it's made by Taiyo Yuden.

Look @ this link and you'll see what we're talking about.

I've had bad luck with Memorex 40X media produced by CMC.
