Ah ... yes, I forgot the good old Sony (with a blue label on bottom)

Kodak no more in production. The 700MB Kodak (short strategy) is not
good one, I still have 2 pcs original 650MB Kodak which can stand 100
year (Kodak claim)

I check with 'cdridentifier.exe' or 'burnatonce', the 700MB TDK short
strategy also, only Mitsubishi have real 'AZO', but we have fake
Mitsubishi here also.
