I'm aware that certain brands of CDR do not work well in the CD changers of minifacelift elites.

Does anyone have any feedback on which discs work well, and which don't?

Many thanks!

Officially, none.

Verbatim/TY burnt at 4x max on a Pioneer writer may not shag the laser too quickly

Never had a problem with any make of CDR it might be the way you are burning them

The CDC2 is more resilient to CDR usage than the CDC3 variants, but does it no favours.  CDRs in a CDC3, esp cheap nasty ones burned with crap writers and at high speed, are guaranteed to shag the lasers.

For info, the manual, certainly the facelift manual, states CDR'S are not compatible.

CDRs weren't common when the prefacelift was released

Cheers guys.
If it will actually cause damage, I'll use the originals. I was just thinking of keeping them at home, and having CDRs in the car, to prevent originals getting damaged etc.

I think good decision I have never used any copies in the NCDC and (tempting fate) no problems
