I just burned a custom-made VCD on my DVD-Burner using a Memorax CD-RW. It plays fine on the DVD-Player. but when I place it back on my burner to erase the disc (because I want to do some changes to the VCD), my burner doesn't read it; though strangely my DVD-ROM drive above reads it perfectly fine. Anybody experience any of these problems with Memorex CD-RWs?

I've been rather unimpressed by Memorex media. IMO they have an unacceptably high percentage of defective discs. Because of this, I do not buy Memorex media any more.

I have (err had) and older Memorex CD-RW that burnt and erased nicely on my Sony burner. I used it to copy music to my Xbox and it read nicely. Too bad I lost the damn thing.

They're not all bad. They just seem to have a much higher defect rate (IIRC about 1 disc in 10) than any other brand I have ever used.
