I have had great luck with TDK, Verbatim (my favorite), and Dysan. Our local
Best Buy carries the Dysan and as Mr. Woodford said they are cheaper than
most. I've never burnt a single coaster with any of these brands and the old
CD-ROM drive in my kids computer reads them all with no problem.
Not sure about any website though.
