All the business card CD-Rs I have ever used are actually slightly larger than 50MB, sometimes as much as 54MB.

Hi ke4nt,

Thanks! That's very much appreciated, I'll email you shortly. I just drove around town and the 49MB ones I'm getting from Staples (Business Depot) were all I could find. They actually look quite nice, with a white printable/writable surface and appear to be true business card CD-Rs and not regular CD-Rs cut to shape.

FYI,
I work part-time in the electronics department at a Wal-Mart and when I meet an "intelligent" Windows user I open my wallet and give them whichever version of DSL disc I have - so far I've given out about 11 DSL discs :-)

PS
I can't seem to burn at anything less than 4x via cdrecord (1.10) even if I specify otherwise - comments?

Peace and Long Life,
