    I tried to erase and re-burn onto one multiple times and I'm having problems.. just wondering if you can only erase it once.

    Thats not always a bad thing. Some memorex dvd+rw's are made by ricoh.

    TommyL,

    Try doing a full erase between burns. I've used my sony dvd+rw's (phillips 041) over and over.

    ireland,

    I hear ya. Ricoh imo is some of the best media made. You know as well as I that you have to be careful when buying memorex media and it is always a gamble but once in a while you can still get the good stuff.
