Even "Cheap" CD-RW work in Sony 9000ES


Well I went down to Best Buy this week and bought the cheapest no name CD-RW's to try in my Sony. I bought a 10 pack of "PNY" Technologies CD-RW's for $7.99 (.79 each), burned them on my HP CD writer+ 9300, and guess what...They worked on the 9000ES!!!!! I even erased one and re-recorded over it and it still read it just fine!!! Now if I can just find a CDR blank with the same reflectivity properties as the CD-RW. I'll keep trying different CDR's and IF I find one that works I'll report back!!

I tried to use a Maxell CD-R for music and recorded on my Plextor 12/10/32S some Diana Krall MP3s and it will not play on my 9000ES.

I wonder if a CD-RW will work like you mentioned.

thanks,
I maybe wrong or I just did not look hard enough on the manual.
All I saw was it will not play CD-Rs on pg. 7 but I did not see anything saying it will play CD-RWs, I actually did not see anything written on it pertaining to CD-Rw's at all. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I will try to record on a CD-RW though and hopefully I get lucky like Darrel.
I got a CD-RW to work on my Sony 9000ES. The brand is Verbatim DataLifePlus CD-RW. Thanks a lot for the tip guys.
