I just saw this ad at Best Buy for this week and was wondering if these discs were any good. They're Fuji 8x DVD-R. Here's a link to the ad. I heard somewhere that these Fujis carry the Taiyo Yuden label on them. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

If they say made in Japan the manufactuer code will be TYG02..if the back of the dvd package says made in taiwan the code will be Prodisc...i've used some of the prodisc but Nero wasnt able to read those discs for my back up copies.

I just noticed that those are good prices for 100pk. I need to go out and use my Best Buy coupons.

Those are even +r's, that is a good price. Too bad they're not hub printable.

those cheapie 4x TY's are arguably better media, I guess it depends on what kind of burner you have. The only way you can tell if those Fuji's are TY's is if they say MADE IN JAPAN on them, in the fine print.
I had thought that Fuji wasn't realing with TY anymore, but there's hopefully more old stock still in some warehouse.

BTW,aren't there rules for obnoxiously large pics in(stead of)
signatures here?
