My company uses a Philips CDD 521/10 CD-Recorder for software
distribution.  As the CD-R media is (for our purposes) write once, 
it is expensive at # 17 (pounds sterling) a disc, for 50 discs.

According to the introduction section of the manual, the CDD 521
supports "CD-ROM (XA), CD-Photo, CD-I and CD-DA".  
The CD-R media is part number 22 SW 1399.

At my local Photo Shop, the cost of a Photo-CD prior to any transfers is
# 4.99.  Assuming that Philips CD-Photo is Kodak Photo-CD, is Kodak Photo-CD
media the same media as used by the Philips CDD 521 ?  If so, how much does
Photo-CD media cost and can you recommend a Supplier ?  I intend to try it
and find out.

Thank you,
Mark.
