1) My burner, coupled with EAC, can take upwards of 15
_hours_ to extract the WAV from the cheap discs.  That
is a pain in the ass.  Quality discs don't give me
this problem.

2) Cheapie discs sometimes burn _incorrectly_.  I do
everything right, use EAC to extract, extract as one
large file, create a CUE sheet, listen to the WAV file
off my computer and burn to disc with CDRWIN.  If I
use a cheapie disc, somehow pops and snaps get added
in, when I check the burned disc on my stereo.  When I
use quality discs, this never happens.  The only
difference is the blank media, not any of the burning
steps.

I could care less if this or that brand will last a
hundred years if kept at room temperature in a dry
room.  I just want to be able to copy a disc in a
decent amount of time, and don't want to add
diginoise.
