Sony CDR-W13G1 Double Density Rewritable CD

Customer Reviews:

Double the space, double the fun! [Posted on 2003-06-27]
Sony's double density CD-RWs are great. They cost a little more, but you get twice the space. I happen to like the regular size jewel cases much more than the slim cases (and I absolutely despise (this is some-what hyperbolic, I suppose) CD-RWs that come stacked without their cases), so these have that added bonus. Unfortunately, my computer won't handle recording speed of any faster than 8X, so the 12X that someone reccommended instead of these wouldn't do me much good. Can't go wrong with the Sony quality either....

:-( Only Works on DD Burners!! )-: [Posted on 2003-12-18]
When I saw this, I thought it would be a great way to increase my MP3 CD player's capacity, as well as a great backup disk.

However, when it arrived, I noticed the case said "Designed for optimum performance in Double Density (DD) CD-RW Writer and CD-ROM drive." This means that you need a special DD CD burner to use this. This site never mentioned this!! It is only after I have spent my money on this that I found out that what I bought was an ugly coaster and a spare jewel case. I put it in my normal CD burner, and it would not even recognize it as a CDRW.

Why the hell don't they say this in the product description??

Heed my warning; do not by this unless you have a DD burner!

P.S. Who has ever heard of a Double Density Burner?? Must be yet another one of Sony's failed products that they're still trying to sell! (Remember the Mini Disc, they still make them!!)
