Default Brakes??

Hey guys I have a brake question. Is there a difference between types of pads, and if so what is the best pad?
I think it is time to replace mine and am wondering what everyone else is using. Any help would be great. thanks.

I love Lyndall racing pads. They never squealed once and grip like
a SOB.

Ok, I am almost sold on these lyndal z pads, where is the best (cheapest) place to buy from? I am in one of the states not on the distributor list.
