I bought a stack of 50 CD-Rs for about $20 Canadian the other day in a store similar to Best Buy or Circuit City. That's about 40 cents per CD-R. Maybe the tax is on CD-RW but who knows.

The tax is only on CD-R specificly marked as Audio CD-R's They are exactly the same as a regular CD-R, just branded and taxed differently so only really stupid or desperate people wind up paying the tax. This was done because businesses balked at paying the tax on the massive number of CD-R they use for data.

Actually, the CD-R media is likely taxed like it is in the US - on the "special" Audio CD-R discs.
