I will provide you with a valuable clue. On this planet, which we call
earth, 99% of the population makes no distinction between brand and brand
name. They are the same. Your terminology is what is wrong. You should
have used formulation and Brand Name. Since you are new to this planet, and
the English language is complex and dynamic, you can be forgiven.

FWIW, a Verbatim disc is a Verbatim disc, regardless of formulation. Most
people don't know and don't care about anything other than the brand or the
price.
