Couldn't find anything on the search, so sorry if this topic has already came up. Anyway, what is the "industry standard" CD? What CD's do everyone burn their music to? A lot of mine are useless and skip a lot. :( Sorry for the stupid question which has probably been brought up a million times before.

Thanks in advance!

There is no industry standard CD-R

it might not be the cd...try a new burning program or lowering the speed you write them at.

Ok, thanks man. Could you recommend any programs in particular? And as for CD - R, are there any types somebody could recommend which are decent? I currently use Sony. Thanks in advance!

just stay away from the cd-r's that look the same on both sides.

i personally use:

This is a fairly amusing question, what is this the construction industry:haha:
Anyway, I use TDK golds, they're supposed to be backed by a guarantee of being OK.

very unlikely to have crappy CD-Rs these days...I would guess it's your burner or software.

any of the big name cd/dvd burners should be fine. software, Nero and Toast are the more common names, but there are plenty of alternatives.

and yes, stick to the lowest speed you can accept.
