Sony CD/MP3 Walkman D-CJ01

heard that Memorex gets its cds from a separate crappy company and slaps its logo on it.

In fact, this is true of most CD-R brands, and the cheap ones tend to be Ritek or CMC Magnetics, or at least made from the same stampers (believe it or not, I'm told that some CD-R manufacters are so cheap that they buy stampers from other companies instead of making their own).

Anyway, the good brands that are actually manufacturers are supposed to be Kodak, Mitsui, Taiyo Yuden, and TDK (there are some TDKs that are rebranded Ritek, unfortunately). I heard Kodak is getting out of the CD-R business though, probably due to the flood of cheap crappy CD-Rs spoiling the market...
