Blank-CD-CDR.com is either having a sale on certain 50MB business card-size CD-Rs or they've lowered their prices (I'm not entirely clear after looking at their site whether the price drops are temporary or permanent).

Anyway, 50MB CD-Rs from this vendor used to sell for ~$48.00US or more for 100, but some are now $37.00US/100 with vinyl sleeves. Ground shipping from California to Oregon for 100 was $6.26, so I got 100 discs with sleeves for $43.26, or just over 0.43 per.

These discs work great in my Sony IDE 52x CD-R drive but not in my LaCie 4x external USB drive.

I haven't seen 50MB rounded-corner (as opposed to rectangular) CD-Rs any lower than this anywhere else.

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

This vendor is having a Labor Day sale - 5% off and most of the 50MB business card-size CDRs are $37.00 for 100 before the sale.

They also sell quantities from 25 to 2000 and have sample packs with 9 or 12 for those who only want a few.

See the link above for the 50MB page, and/or see the following for the sale code and sample pack info:
