Anyone Happen To Have A Sony Wx-5000mdx?

That's what came with my car originally, and after some quick research it's a unit made & sold just in Japan. It plays original CD's no problem, and one guide I found said it's cd-r compatible, but as yet I can't find a suitable brand of CD that will play without fault.

A burnt CD I've had for about 6-7 years plays no problem, but I can't find that type any more. I've tried a few different kinds, but only a couple have even played, and even then it's a struggle to get it going. If I do get one to work, I have to leave it to run from where it starts. I can't just go to track 10 because then it won't read the disc any more. Ghey.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a cd-r disc that is very good & will play in just about anything? I only have a very basic stereo (not spending money on it if it won't go faster ), but it would be good to be able to play the sort of cd's that I listen to because they are all compilations, and it sucks having to listen to one artist all the time IMO.

Worse comes to worse I'll just have to buy a second hand one for like $50 that will play them, but with it being a double din unit in there now I'll have to get the gap that will be there sorted then

Anyone can help it would be much appreciated
