CD-R Pro: best for wear resistance + proven longevity, second best for theoretical longevity 
I usually make 2 copies: 1 with Maxell CD-R Pro and 1 with Verbatim DataLifePlus Crystal. The DataLifePlus Crystal uses a newer Metal Azo process that is "theoretically" designed to last longer--and has a scratch resistant coating--and is about the same cost. However the CD-R Pro uses the traditional cyanine process which is already proven to last for decades--and is one of the few such discs that is labeled as "archival"--and has a triple-coated scratch resistance. I've used both for a year and have no complaints.
Currently I am backing up 16 audio CD's using two Sony internal drives and Nero Express with the "data verification" option checked. At the breakneck speed of 48x I had one failure to verify with a DataLifePlus. I reduced the speed to 40x and have had no problems since. (If necessary I will reduce down to 24x and still be happy with that speed. In the old days I often found it necessary to stay at 4x and if time allows would still do so for critical data.)
so far so good
I have used only 17 of them so far. They record fine. Don't know about lasting, not enough time has passed. So far, so good. I am going to buy them again. Sharon
Not working? 
I have a simple dell computer with a standard burner(nothing fancy), but it's worked in the past. So my girlfriend buy these and thus far I've attempted 5 burns and only 1 is successful. I'm returning them.
BEST BLANK CDS AVAILABLE!
I've had several instances where my blank CDs were scratched so badly from general use that they wouldn't play properly. But this isn't the case with these puppies because they have an amazing 3 anti-scratch coatings. Sometimes I got blank CDs with very little writing surface but this isn't the case with these well designed gems because they have 8 lines on front. They always burn with no problems. In sum, these are the very best CD blanks money can buy.
Completely satisfactory for me.
Bought these after hearing my music CDs skip on certain players. These Maxells (made in Japan) have been terrific. They play flawlessly on any CD player I've come across.
