Seriously, there was always some issue with RW's. Just get the bigger pack of R's for the same price as a small pack of RW's.

Yeah at least 90% of the RWs I ever bought went to waste.  It was a good idea but just not good enough execution, by the time things started getting better, everyone either already had 512MB-1GB usb drives, or if you needed more space, larger external HDDs.
