I like Verbatims, and that is what I mainly buy.
Whatever you do, AVOID the cheapo discs at all costs. Years ago, for a short amount of time, I bought "Great Quality" cd/dvds from Frys to back up my photos, music, etc., and rarely had bad burns. It seemed like a great deal at the time. Big mistake. After just a year or two, no cd/dvd drive would recognize the disc, or the files. Apparently, the cheaper discs use inferior coatings on the disc that degrade, disolve, whatever over time, rendering the discs useless.
I tried to retrieve the information anyway I could. I tried different computers, different drives, and even tried a few utilities specializing in data recovery, to hopefully save some data. I was able to recover some files, but lost quite a bit. The music I don't really care about losing, that is easily replaced, but I lost a lot of valuable photos "relatives, and friends who are no longer alive, vacation photos, etc.". Now, I only use the good stuff.
If you have any data backed up on cheaper brand discs, I highly suggest that you check them periodically. I would even check the name brand stuff just to be safe, and even reburn them from time to time, so you have fresh backups.
