So, how much life are we talking about compared to the OEM stuff?
They burn through faster, sure, but you can't argue with that price gap compared to the official brands.
Personally, I stick to the genuine toner and ink for my main gear, but for the laser printer we use for everyday office tasks... well, it lasts. It’s been about two years now, and I've clocked roughly 6,000 pages of text and demo graphics out of it.

want to see it all end up in a landfill. I've got a massive stack of CDs sitting here. What am I supposed to do with them all?

I usually toss my CDs or DVDs with actual important data into the microwave for about 15 seconds first. After that, they go straight into the HDPE bin at the local recycling center. Same deal for toners, printers, and all that junk.
