And a good CD-R for less than 5 cents, if you keep an eye out for sales,
rebates, and other deals.

Not here in the UK. Cheapest CDR i have seen is about 20p. The cost of
importing CD-R from the states would cancell out any saving I would
have made.


25 dvd-r for less than £20(remember thats the same as 175 cdr discs).

For reliable discs that write faster than 1X? Faster than 2X? The 5 cent
CD's I mentioned above are usually approved for 48-52X speeds (and actually,
last time I bought a spindle, I paid 2 cents per disc, not 5).
