I've never had a problem over the years using Fuji blanks.  I've gone 
through hundreds and hundreds of them - the number of coasters due to 
manufacturing flaws I can count on one hand.  I've burned them in the 
Plextor in my Xp box, in my original Yamaha burner, in the Pioneer 
burner in my G4, and in the burner in my MacBook Pro.
