I bought two packs of the memorex 20 mds for $30 U.S. each at circuitous city. I am very fond of them. My wife says some of the colors are pretty, which is always very important. Since they don't have have cases, I have been inspired to a new system of labelling, where I just put a little strip label on the top end of the MD. You can still look at it after slipping it into a jewel case, if you have a jewel case to put it in. I used to label the jewel cases, but it was hell trying to keep the MDs and the jewel cases matched up. If you have a problems with me doing this, please please get a life. ; ) With warmest regards, Steve Higgs On Fri, 10 Dec 1999 02:57:13 -0700 (MST), in you wrote: >Steven Brooks wrote: >> This does sound like a great deal, especially at $1.75/each.
