Actually, if you are interested in buying CD-RW media at retail stores in the U.S., Fry's isn't the only choice. Microcenter has a good selection of Verbatim CD-RW discs, including the Verbatim Ultra Speed CD-RW discs.
Verbatim or Yamaha CD-RW discs are the best overall. Those Yamaha discs are Fry's are very good also, but they are pricey. I would first forget the idea of getting 700 MB 80 minute CD-RW discs unless you want 4x CD-RW discs--here in the U.S., only Verbatim 4x CD-RW discs can be bought in the 700 MB size. All other Verbatim CD-RW discs--I mean those that high speed and ultra speed are 650 MB in size here in the U.S. What I am saying is that the two best brands in CD-RW discs, Verbatim and Yamaha, do not sell the 700 MB size here in the U.S., except for the Verbatim 4x CD-RW discs.
In short, buy Verbatim CD-RW discs online or at Microcenter. I say this because the Yamaha CD-RW discs are more pricey and therefore not desireable for most people. As for online vendors, I bought my Verbatim CD-RW discs from buy.com, but there are many online vendors selling them.
