Combining a groovy vinyl look with the rugged quality and performance of Verbatim CD-R technology comes Digital Vinyl CD-R, a recordable disc designed after the popular 45-rpm record format. Impossible to ignore, these attention-getters are a great way to save delicate LP collections, make a standout business presentation or simply burn your personal music mix. The 80min/700MB color-coded discs deliver reliable recording even at blazing drive speeds. Each disc comes protected by a special dual-layer coating that safeguards data for years to come.

Okay- avid music collector- was preparing to record to disc a load of live concerts- thought it would be cool to have them on these vinyl looking discs. I ordered 2x50 pack spindles as the prices was unbelievable. Post online order I got inpatient- and started to wonder in looking at the online pics of the product if I'd be able to label these per my usual method via sharpie- band name at the top- location at the bottom, date on the left side and what disc # for the 2 cd show on the right portion of the cd. I went to BB and got a 10 pack of the same as my 100 had not arrived. Got home and realized that there is virtually no space to write. Not only that- but the material is a glossy texture such that a very fine marker will not take. They look cool- yes, however you sacrifice look for function. They appear to record just as any disc- but there is simply no room for folks like me who are archiving and need more than just a line or two to describe the contents. I think the same brand with the inkjet printable surface would be okay- but there is still little room as it is taken up by the decorative vinyl. I have seen some reviews where folks complain saying- "these aren't really vinyl- just look like it". I'm guessing they don't realize that a cd burner doesnt have the capability to press grooves in vinyl circa 1930-
Anyway- returned my 100 cds for in store credit. Burned a few discs from the 10 pack and have a couple of cool looking coasters for my cd desk.

What's great about it: Look cool- nostalgic.
What's not so great: No room to write on the colored version.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
