Lite On is the only brand I would actually tell people to steer well clear of. Over the years we sold a brand of computer here at my company and 10 out of every 10 Lite On Cdroms went bad or just sucked period.
I've also read some articles that did some tests on burners and the Lite On's didn't burn correctly, its been a while but something about how they don't do it in a way that will make the disk last as long as it should.
All those experiences were before DVD writers got big so maybe its changed, but there are so many other good brands out there I won't take a chance.
