Burner type has very much "to do with". Not every burner likes TY, and discs may not burn well as you expect. Check your burner at: http://club.cdfreaks.com where are scans of various brands vs burners.

Verbatim discs burns usually very well and are reliable. Like Stantheman wrote above, DL are one of the best on the market. Whatever companies write, nobody can determine how (any) brand may behave after xx(x) years, lol. I have Verbatim CDR discs which are now almost 15 years old, and they still read perfectly, and there is no sign of oxidation.

If you want to live so long you may buy Verbatim silver/gold plated discs - as yet only DVD5.
