Any recommended or "Avoid" for aftermarket?

I see Textar, Zimmerman,Wagner, TRW, Raybestos ... thoughts?
As I understand, BMW OEM are just repackaged Textar pads. I liked OEM for stopping power, but could not stand heavy dusting of them.

I switched to Akebono - no dusting, but stopping power is very different -lacking initial bite, so I need to "work" more to stop car predictably.

Once Akebono wears out, I will probably switch back to OEM - I do miss the way they stop.
