verbatim are the best manufacturer ive come across. although they are very expensive compared to the lower end ones. if you want a good brand, but not so expensive, try bulkpaq

ive noticed that if you write on the media with black marker it ruins the cd/dvd but anyways i just use any media there all the same really

Generally use a marker that is "soft" and you'll be ok

Moser Baer India is pretty damn good, personally, im a fan of Mitsubishi and Taio Yuden but when you get up there, all the brands are pretty damn good

TDK has announced a new coating for LCDs, CD, DVDs, and other surfaces (inlcuding the upcoming BluRay discs), that may make them scratch and blemish resistant. It is supposed to be able to resist heavy scratching.
