                          i was wondering if my traxdata-ritekg05 are that bad...they are class 2
                          I've burnt quite a few Ritek G05 with no problems. I checked them afterwards with Nero CD-DVD Speed and they all appeared to be good burns with no errors.
                          Maybe in a few years they'll degrade and I'll regret not going with Taiyo Yuden lol. Time will tell...

                            if one of the gurus over at cdfreaks is right, think months not years

                            mine died in about a year
