Buying a CD-RW either the LG 8080B 8 X 4 X 32 AT £99.99 , or the TEAC 4 X 4 X 32 at £79.99 (sale) both at Dixons.

Both got good reviews from owners on American review site.

Wonderd which you would recomend.

Plus are the cheapo CD-R blanks worth bothering with.
ie 50 for £20.00.

I would go for the LG fantastic value, but if ya wait a bit there is a a even faster version for the same price coming out soon, Get MicroMart PC mag, has a review on the newer LG Drive, gave it top marks.

I`ve got the TEAC one and it is excellent - had no probs. Can even use cheap and nasty CD`s and it still works a treat.

I just bought the FREECOM 4x 8x 32x for £99.99 and it works wonders. well out of the 2 you said i would go with the LG 4x 8x 32x for £89.99 it`s 2 twice as fast writing on a recordable disk so buy the LG.
