    Is lightscribe DVD media fairly cheap compared to regular DVD media?
    Which brand is reliable? TY, Verbatim, Sony?

    officemax has HP lightscribe media on sale this week but I don't think HP DVD media is that good.

    I'll be picking up some of there CDR media.

    I just bought 30 Verb 8X+R (code out as MCC003) off of Supermediastore.com for 39.99. Figures out as 1.33$ a disc. Don't guess I'll be burning too many labels just yet. I would stay away from the HP media if at all possible.

    the ONLY lightscribe media to trust is verbatim.
    TY or Sony does not make Lightscribe.
    hp is junk..

    when on sale.. at best buy mainly..
    its either a 10 pack for $7.99
    or a 25 pack for $25
    it does average to about the same. those will come in (+) format. depending on your lg burner.. it should be able to booktype those to dvd rom and you will have no issue.

    and you want / need to learn about booktyping.. check this link

    your cdr media for LS... regular price is $20 for a 30 pack..

    hope that helps
