I want to buy some discs to record some music on and some to store pics.
Which kind of disc do I need? I have looked and there are so many types...am bear of very little brain re computers, so be gentle with me!
They all have different letters CD-R, CD god knows what, Help!
:-\
I just use Aldi,s CD-R. But if you really want to get confused
www.ukdvdr.co.uk
I use SVP. They have all sorts of computer-related items on their site and seem to be very good value for money:

CD-R disc are one s where you record the music/photo's etc in one go. CR-RW are re-writable which means you can erase them time and time again. To record on those discs you will need a CD ReWrighter drive or a DVD ReWrighter drive. You can store about 650mb on each disc (Music wise that is an albums worth in an uncompressed format). To store more you will need to use DVDs, this is where it gets a bit more complicated. If you are thinking of using DVDs i will post a bit of info about them :)
;D ;D ;D
Thanks very much everyone. I can now shop with ammunition!
;)
Just a quick note re; disc`s , If you record music on to a disc and want to play that music on an external source ( CD player/ disc man etc ) then it`s best to buy audio disc`s, one`s that you can record music on to, some external source machines do not understand whats written on the disc unless it`s an audio type.
Hope thats of help ;)
Not all discs that are recorded on, play on home cd players they must be "finalized " first
Just thought I would mention that
I use Aldi's Tevion brand CDR's for both music and data, with good results in each case.
The may be cheap, but they are good quality too. Then again, that's usually the case with Aldi's bargains.
We use Novatech - about £6 for 50.
