Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Ultradisc CD-R is something you would spend your money on and love it.

Real music and audio addicts don't have an alternative!! It is 'the one and only' CD-R, despite the cost.

The Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Ultradisc CD-R is a very well packaged 24 karat gold CD-R for people that are concerned with longevity. The packaging states a 300 year life which I kind of find hard to believe. However it is true that gold does not oxidize, so maybe there is some merit to the 300 year claim. With Samplitude I burned several discs on my plextor drive at 1, 4 and 8 x and found the 1 x burn to be remarkably better.
More testing to come but first impression is a really robustly made and accurate CD-R. Finally! I would guess these would also fair much better when it comes to being abused and still being able to be played back. In other words a day in the sun in your car would probably not wipe out this disc, like many others I've had. I left an "ultradisc" CD-R on my window sill that gets a 6-7 hous of direct sunlight a day for 10 days now and the disc still plays perfectly. If I had a dime for every cheap CD-R that got wiped out in my car from the sun......... Anyway a very promising product a little pricey, but the whole package with the anti-center hole stress lifting mechanism is very well executed.

Now the company that has produced definitive audiophile, collectable reissues by the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, John Lennon, Aimee Mann, Miles Davis & John Coltrane among others has created the world's ultimate archival quality CD-R in the form of the Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Ultradisc CD-R. Perfect for backing up your iTunes, mp3s, vinyl, CDs, digitla photos, data & more.
