Default Brand name DME/LME

I'm browsing through my BYO recipe mag and I see alot of the recipes have a specific brand of extract (Coopers, Muntons, etc). Is there any difference or are they pretty much the same. I'm assuming they are...just wondering.

I interchange pretty freely, but when I write recipes, I always specify which I used, in case someone wants to do an exact duplicate. Could be the same thought process at work.

Some extracts are more or less fermentable than others. Knowing the exact extract can help replicate fermentability.
