There is not one review or shootout where CMC comes close to MCC. Verbatim (MCC) wins it all. I can't understand why people fanatically love Taiyo Yuden? OK they are good but not good enough to ignore media from Ricoh, TDK and Mitsubishi, I don't see the point why I should buy TY.
I will tell you something... There are MCC discs made in Taiwan, made in Singapore, and Made in India... The first are made by CMC Magnetics, the second by Mitsubishi, and the third in India by Moser Baer India... These are the facts (and bbmayo please dont tell me that Mitsubishi ALSO owns a factory in India because I will do harakiri.... ) Tha same is happening with TDKs 8X: media code is shown as TTG02 but made by CMC Magnetics. The same is happening with Ricoh: Shown as RIcohJPn but are made by Ritek Taiwan. Though, you should understand that these discs are with "special" instructions and quality controls, and also with the know-how of Ricoh or MCC respectively. I hope this might help you. Bye
Even so (your statement is believable).... The point is: When stated as MCC you get the best. When the ID is CMC than it is mediocre and this is also an worldwide (Germany, UK & USA) proven fact.
getuo Tell me where you are getting your info is all I want to know is this to much to ask? Or are we all supposed to just beleive everything you say is fact? what is really important here is the fact that MCC is superior quality compared to CMC, and thats all Unjust2u wanted to know in this thread. One more thing getuo I never said anywhere that MCC was located anywhere else besides Tokyo, Japan so I am not sure where all your rants are comming from? Yet still one more thing At first getuo "thinks" this statement is true now getuo says it is fact.. hmmmm Please just let me know where to find this out is all that I am asking. I would really like to know if it is true or not. Thank you
Look these are info from business "insiders"... These are not facts that MCC will go out and release a press statement about it... Because if they wanted all to know about this, they wouldnt put their stamp on the CMC manufactured discs. But as I have already told you...the fact that MCC doesnt have a factory in Taiwan or India, although there are MCC discs made in these countries is a proof of what I am saying... If you find that MCC owns a factory in India and Taiwan...then yes, I will be wrong.
Your still wrong The fact that the disks come from Taiwan is that the company's that MCC manufacture's the disks for are located in Taiwan. Did you ever think of that? Good Day
"...the company's that MCC manufacture's the disks for are located in Taiwan" What company is MCC manufacturing for???? You mean Verbatim? HA ha ha!!!! But MCC IS VERBATIM It is the same thing. Bye
Ok bbmayo, and because you need some sources read this from MCC's company site: "Mitsubishi Chemical is going to cooperate with CMC Magnetic Corporation by supplying the expertise of manufacturing technologies and experienced personnel, inspecting the products based on the quality standards of Mitsubishi Chemical to secure the same quality with the own product of Mitsubishi Chemical." Source: http://www.m-kagaku.co.jp/english/newsreleases/1998/083101.htm Bye
Thank you was that so hard. Now I believe you a little bit... hehehehe By reading that press release though you can still expect the media that is branded MCC is still going to be good quality. Right? Thanks for the info getuo it is good to know stuff. bbmayo
Yes MCC are still good media (although I would prefer the made in Singapore). The results are OK. But the recipe with the new TDK 8X, unfortunately is very bad... (uptodate) Bye
... However the press release that the link directs us to says nothing at all about CMC manufacturing DVDs for MCC ... It is talking about CD-Rs, video tape and floppy media ... CMC has never had any problems with CD-R media ... But I repeat .. The press release says nothing at all about CMC making DVDs for MCC ! ...
Yeah I noticed that to catfreak I just got tired of arguing my point. You see I can't for the life of me understand why a far superior company(MCC) would allow a much less quality company (CMC) put there name on there disk. That would just plane be stupid. Just not a very good buisness decision. You can look everywhere on the internet and everything is bad for CMC on the other hand it the opposite for MCC. It would be like Fisher putting a Bose logo on there stereo system. Does anyone else think about this like me or am I way off here, and getuo is right?
Have a look at the date before you make any safe assumptions...Then there was not DVDs on the market... And do you mean that MCC is stupid enough to allow CMC produce their CDs, but not their DVDs?
ok , here goes .. i think i kind of understand what qetuo is implying ..i hope anyways? i think hes saying that taiwan made verbatim are coming from a cmc factory but when they stop making cmc dvd's they switch out formulas and materials to make mcc dvd's . for example there are factorys that make high quality products and then cheap less expensive quality products . so i think if mcc was coming from the same plant the only way mitsubishi would allow them to stamp there code on these disks would be to use their materials , hence a better quality mcc disk . so infact they might come from the same plant who cares it's still a different product . well thats what i think might be happening ? thanks for your time
