i think that memorx is the best blank media

MEMOREX! LMFAO fell out of my chair. Almost as good as other garbage like princo, imation, and daxon.

No fat chick memorex's for me. I'll take thin sexy brunette verbatim's.

@saugmon,

Memorex drives are ok. They are all rebadges of descent manufactures. Too damn bad we can't say the same about their dvd media.

 

well, this all through me - I have been using memorex for 3 years now and found it worked great for my dvd copies - if they are so bad what does one reccomend ?? I found a few cheaper brands that sucked.

 

@cberton,

To be honest with you, it all boils down to personal choice. If this brand has been working for you then continue to use it. Most of the people here use TY, Sony, Verbatim, and Maxwell.

 

dont forget fuji and ritek

 

creaky, i guess you and newtechie crossed paths in cyber space, but he mentioned verbs.. i just added fuji (mij) and ritek.

 

thanks for the suggestions, I have tried sony and it won't copy some encrypted dvd's neither with a sony burner - some maxell left the movie pixelly and as yet I have gone through over 400 and all came out good with memorex... strange how one has good luck with different types of media.

 

It's a shame that people post questions, then rarely make another post in that thread.



No thanks, nothing!!

 

My first batch of blank DVDs was [bold]Memorex 8x DVD-R 25pk.[/bold], and ain't nan nutta disc go coaster on me (they all worked fine).

Since then I got Verbatim because of all the negative comments (about Memorex) on this site.

If you got some Memorex and they didn't work out for you, you have all the right in the world to be angry, but someone like me who has no idea what you're talking about, it sounds counterintuitive.

You don't have to tell me, but experience is the best teacher - or something like that. )

The point of most here saying memosux really does suck.

These deductions are drawn by many with bad experience of memosux!

Experience by many here say mostly the same [bold]memorex bites!, End of story[/bold].

Believe me, there are many here with years of burning experience. I am not sure how else to get the point across!!

@creaky, it's like banging your head against a brick wall sometimes!!

 

I got a 25 pack of Memorex 16x DVD-R's for either Christmas or my birthday from my girlfriend. I figured since I didn't pay for these I'd open them up & see who made it. Well Plextools reported RitekF1. Ritek is fair quality but what the heck is F1? Never heard of it. Nero's CD-DVD Speed reported the same thing.

Guess I'll burn one or two at 4x & then do a quality check on them with Nero...

 

Memorex isn't the best blank media.

 

bratcher,

Never heard of ritek F1 either but being made by ritek those memorex's will probably be ok.

See that is one of the reasons most of us do not recommend memorex. You never know from batch to batch what you are going to get and if your luck runs like mine they will be el crapo cmc mag's. BTW I do have personal experience with memorex and it was not good.

I use verbatim 8x dvd+r's and they have been top notch mcc003's every batch.

 

My first memosuxs still work pretty good, I don't get rings on my desk from the coffee cups.

 

I was wandering what is the best for backing up movies -r's or +r's... does it matter??? my dvd burner supports both but is one better than the other... Thanks

 

In case some people havn't got the hint yet, MEMORX SUCKS.
That should be clear by now. I'm sure the person who posted the original message must have done it just for kicks. There is no way they could be serious.

...and that's my two cents.

Well I'll burn & test two of these Memorex discs to see if they are any good before I waste time burning the whole 25 pack. One at 4x & the other at 8x. I can burn at 16x but I have no need to do so on any disc except CDR's used for audiodiscs.

As for me the made in Japan Sony 8x -R's are ok but I prefer either MCC or TY media. Found 2 Japanese Sony 50 packs (one at a Walmart & the other at a Walgreens) but I still have a new batch of six hundred 8x TY DVD-R's to use up. Nothing wrong with +R (I can burn it) but I started with -R & will stay with it for now....
