The CDR-DA (Digital Audio) has certain flags that the CDR does not.
The reason the CDR-DAs are more expensive is that the price includes a
royalty for the music industry. The two CDs are physically the same but the
Consumer DVD Players, CD Duplicators etc. look for the flags on the CDR-DA.

This was the case with a Denon Duplicator I used. It was a hi-fi CD player
that also copied CDs and it would not recognise CDRs only CDR-Das

I think you should get one and try it out. They are only about $1 more than
normal CDRs.

Let me know if it works....

Scott Palmer
