just picked up this maplin electronics brochure at work. They got a set of 10 cd-r which look like a 45 for £6.99. Looks like they come in 45 style cases also. Kinda looks cool. Great way of giving a pressie of a cdr you done for someone.

I've seen these and they are really nice looking [if a cd-r can be anything other than a circular plastic blank for recording onto, quite unlike vinyl you understand !!!]
A mate brought a bunch of them back from a recent trip to NYC but I've not seen them here yet.....untill now that is! super duper stocking filling stuff I 'spose.I was raised by wolves

not seen them blank, but the free Trojan comp that came with Mojo last year was in this format ie: a black vinyl 45 style cd. Beware, though: I did have to return one copy as the cover CD was scratched to buggery (just like a real, authentic Trojan 45, come to think of it) and the bloke at Tower in Picadilly went through two more copies before we found one with a cover CD that looked OK. Could've been unlucky, or could be that these cd-rs are more susceptible to damage than 'normal' metallic ones...
they look fantastic, though - and for the record my freebie Trojan one has given me no further problems!a giant steam-powered turntable in warwickshire plays six foot cement recordings of Prince Albert's speeches to the rejoicing populace

I think you're talking about 2 different things here. I've looked into manufacturing those black CDs and you make make literally ANY colour CD, except black - because playstation games or something come in that format. How Mojo managed to make that Trojan CD is a mystery... Unless anyone can tell me differently?There MUST be a Hymns-A-Swingin' in this box...

Coloured CD's only happened due to new dye's on the reflective layer on the top of the cd. Previously they were gold/silver/blue as they were best suited (highly reflective in laymans terms) but now the dyes are so good they can use all sorts of colours.www.thesoundlibrary.net <- Changed URL
