The Best Blank DVD's Are Memorex....

The thing all of you dont seem to understand is that in about a year or so your disks will be unplayable, cos memorex are crap.

There's no two ways about it IMO

 

Boy this thread sure has turned into comedy hour. Memorex as being the best and people actually defending the statement, what a joke!!!
I've been backing up movies for 6 years and they all work perfectly using verbatims. The best part of it all is office max puts them on sale for 14.99 for a 50 pack all the time. You can't beat that with a bat!!!!

 

Try me ;-)

Also, if anyone else says Memorex are good media, I will beat them with a bat!

 

I'm just saying that i have had games last on memorex for several years. I have a back-up of Halo 2( copy of my game) that i made when it first came out and i havent needed to reburn or anything. still plays like new. All my other back-ups play great too, but i'm having trouble with DAH2. Locks up radomly during play or won't even load at all.

I never said that memorex was the best, just said that i think it is good media and it also works on my ps2 and gc perfectly.

 

What do your Memorex code out as?

 

the only decent memorex are the DVD+R DL which code out as Ritek

all the SL are crap its like rolling the dice on what your going to get buying them so WHY????

you can buy Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim and know what your getting EVERYTIME!!!

 

i tried checking the code with nero and the code didnt show up. so i'am unsure what the code is. i know that these aren't made by memorex but they a under memorex's name since i bought them from meritline and they came in a giant spindel with a barcode on them. they are silver dvd's with no writing on them except for the memorex text around the area were the spindel holds it(the hole in the middle of the disc).

Taiyo Yuden burn at 1x in my 16x burner so i dont bother to buy them if they take a hour to record a dvd. I have a lite-on 1693s and it has the latest firmware and i 'am runnng windows xp professional.

 

Download and run DVDInfoPro, check their code with that.

 

Is your firmware up to date in that LiteOn; the one that only burns at 1x...

 

The only thing I've really liked by Memorex is their 128mb USB thumbdrive. It works great with my PS2 and transfering saves with ARmax.
