Memorex is a common brand of optical discs, but I've had problems with them in
the past.  I've used Verbatim quite a bit and haven't really had problems with
their discs.  TDK and Sony discs seem fairly good too, although theirs seem a
bit harder to find.

I still see CD-Rs and DVD-Rs in some stores, and I'm actually a bit surprised,
considering how many people I've seen these days who say they don't use optical
discs much anymore or that they tend to be relatively unreliable.  Most stores
seem to only carry CD-Rs and DVD-Rs though.  I do wish blu-ray writeable discs
were more common (particularly double-layer ones), as well as LightScribe
discs.
