Subject: CD recording question - no Emailer content
One of the wonderful things about this new eMac that I have is the ability to burn CDs to send to the daughter-unit who's across the briny in Rennes, France, digging around for a job in the theatre over there.
Gotta question about CDs, though. When I was buying some this morning, one batch were labeled as CD recording ready, and another batch (that were intended for more serious audio work, I guess) were labeled as ready for CD audio digital recording.
Is there any difference in CDs that are labeled as being "digital" ready versus the others? I bought the more basic type since they had a printable surface, and part of the fun of doing this is making my own labels with funny photos and the like on them.
So if I'm sending her downloads from the iTunes store, is there going to be ANY audible difference in recording quality? Is there any difference in construction between basic CD-R discs and those labeled for digital audio?
I used to know this kind of stuff back when it was chrome versus ferric tapes, but the CD tech I haven't kept up with since ere this I wasn't recording. Thanks - Charles.
