Hi John,

I think I should add a note to what you have said here.

While I agree that some media is more practical for audio rather than data, 
I couldn't help but notice that the media types you stated in your message 
all use the gold dye on their CD's.

I have found that the colour dye used on the media greatly influences what 
you are able to do, and where you are able to play that media.

I think that's why silver on silver has become the standard nowadays with 
all media.

I remember a time when there were all manner of dyes used on CD media, from 
green to gold, to black and silver, back when there was no standard, and the 
media was relatively new on certain systems.

I know that the green dyes always had a problem playing on Phillips players, 
and Sony always had the gold media, which, for the most part, allowed it to 
be played on most media, however the discs had to be formatted properly, and 
the bit rate had to be at a certain frequency.

Like I said, while that may not be the case any longer, with the advent of 
today's technology, I still have yet to see a silver on silver Cd not play 
well on certain players.
