I currently do have some Memorex although I agree they may not be the best
of the 'name brand' disks. I always liked TDK when I could find them.
The other brands I have at the moment are FujiFilm and Maxell. Given
marketing these days though it can be hard to know how many different
'makes' all come off the same assembly line in China.
I do recall back when standard optical disks were more expensive a friend
used to buy spindles of 100 no-name ones to get a good price - so no-name
they had no labels, which I believe also help protect the disks from light
deterioration. But he also noted right from the start that about one in
five disks would produce a coaster so you do often get what you pay for.
