I'm sure there are some great CD rotors that do not crack, but I would just stay away from them in general.
you obviously didn't read that link. slotted/drilled rotors suck now-a-days. they used to vent off-gas from the resin used on old pads. now, it is just for "looks". just read the article and learn some!
