CD's don't work in some players

[cgib55]

Thank you very much for your excellent answer. I will try it as soon as I can.
RE: disc type. I've tried so many tyoes in my computer to burn, but the only ones that seem to work are Sony CD-RW which are $5.00 for five CD's. I've tried the stack-type, and also less expensive ones, but they did not work. I wish I could find a good solution, since I intend to make a lot of copies of my CD.

Thank you again for your effort,

Cosby,

I use TDK CD-R80 I buy them by the 100 on a spindle - cost in the UK c. £11-12 per 100 i.e 18-20 US cents per disc. On my third batch now and have had only two duds that turned into coaster/beermats.

I selected TDK on the basis of using their SA tapes with excellent results in my Nakamichi tape deck over may years.

Just to add another possibility.

I have a Sony home DVD/CD player Model No: DVP S325 that will not play any home recorded/finalised DVDs & Audio CDs. It will only play commercially recorded ones.

However, I also have a £19.99 Alba unit that will play absolutely anything I record. It will even play one of my audio cds that's been recorded on a CD-RW!

Thank you everyone for excellent information. I will look into all of it, and I'm very appreciative!

Mr. Camtechman, why do you think your Sony player won't play those CD's?? It's almost like these machines are haunted or something.

Thank you!
