As for troublesome media I got some Sony dvd+rw disks at Sams a while back when I ran out of Verbatims. I have had nothing but trouble with them and disk info said they were S11 which is supposed to be good. well not in my book. Neither burner in my computer, the NEC or the LG will make a usable disk with them and neither will the Samsung recorder on my tv line. They cant be erased either once they are burned. Ive had to pitch a load of them away and the ones left I gave away. I always had good luck with Verbatims so had to order some as they are not available anymore here. RWs seem to be a scarce item these days for some reason. Those Taiyo Yuden Ive never seen anywhere outside of online.

r0nbo..If U have access to a Office Depot, and don't mind stamped DVDs. Buy their store brand, as they are Ritek. I've found these Very Good Discs.. I've never seen Tys in consumer outlets either

Anybody had any experience (good, bad, etc ) here lately with Prodisc. I used them a few yrs back, had good use then all of a sudden went bad. So I stopped using

Rick yes we have a Home Depot but no more discs than I use the Verbatims that I ordered will do me for a long time. Thanks for the info and I will pigeonhole it for future reference.

This is the identifier for 2 100DVD spindles of Verbs 16x that I bought at Officemax about 2 months ago. I threw away the labels so I don't remember if they were from India or Taiwan. Roughly 30% of these were coasters.
