wow, look the spammer is back~ :P
pretty bad quality from what i know about it and price is reflected based upon the quality~
based on PREVIOUS versions of this media...they SUCK~!
HQ DVD-R 4.7GB LONGTEN 001. 4x
HQ DVD-R 4.7GB VDSPMSAB 01. 4x
i wouldn't buy these if they gave them to me for free and all i had to pay for was shipping~
and if the HQ stands for HIGH QUALITY, all i can do is laugh at the competition with GQ GREAT QUALITY, they both fighting to be TOP DOG for the WORST media out there~ :P

it's a shame i'm not paid to review BAD media, i'd have such a nice income as there's so much dross out there. God help if any of these manufacturer's are let loose on Dual Layer media or anything else in the future

:) LOL the day you join forces w/ CMC MAG..i will hunt you down personally ANYWHERE in the world and bring you to the CEO of Verbatim to show him what a traitor you are and you will be put on trial before a panel of Verb lovers biased picked from Afterdawn to pass judgement on the King of Verbs himself~ what a pity that would be~ for the Verb army to lose it's reigning leader~ :( sad sad day~

yes, i have unfortunately turned this thread into a pure mockery of the above stated media..but, it's GOOD for people to KNOW about the horrible quality of the aforementioned...if anyone buys from that link, they deserve to be banned from burning dvds indefinitely in the future :)

yeah, if i run out of fuel for the wood burner i still have a mountain of crap media so if the Verb army come looking for me i can soon burn the evidence and keep warm into the bargain.
Saying that i bet there's some nasty chemicals in DVDs, i'd probably smoke myself out

i have burnt a few that way, and do they smell a little. But not as bad as was when i was stupid enough to burn allsorts of plastics, i was just being lazy so as not to fill up the bin one day. Bearing in mind that the burner is about 1.5ft high, the chimney to roof is 4.5ft or so, then from the roof the chimney extends about 2ft, i had roaring flames (ie like a blowtorch) 6inches out of the top of the uppermost section of chimney. I think i broke thru the ozone layer that day :)
And about 16 environmental laws.
But to get myself on topic as i always fall or veer right off, any media called High Quality must be absolute utter rubbish

creaky...im only GUESSING that the "HQ" stands for "high quality"...or maybe it's "Horrible Quality" who really knows? all these new suppliers of media that buy from crap manufacturer companies come up with the most retarded names ever~!
they figure they so "smart and talented" to name a media after some failed attempt to spark consumer interest~ this is VERY true in asian sectors of the market, as i am asian myself, so i know how "my people" think :) hahaha.
at least in marketing dvd media...i can see why companies chose names related to "azo" or "super" or any other word that depicts a sort of higher entity~ they want to come across to the public that their media is of the utmost "highest standards" and "top quality grade" ..etc..etc...it's just a bunch of crock in my opinion, they just out to make a fast buck, regardless of who they step on along the way~ :)

now i'd never have guessed you were asian, i myself am half, but you'd never know as i've been 'brung up' as English.
My eldest makes me laugh as she says that she's a quarter indian as her mum is English.

:) well, i feel i can carry myself pretty well on these online forums...as mistakenly, MOST people take it im caucasian...perhaps based only upon my own upbringing in a COMPLETELY white farming neighborhood~ i was born and raised/grew up in the midwest of the United States...had the farm, acres and acres of corn as far as the eye could see, horses, the whole 9-yards :)
but, yeah, before i divulge my ENTIRE life story on this particular thread...my point here is i understand how "asians," for the most part, "think." so you are 1/2 creaky? im 1/2 too, but still 100% asian~ lol (i don't know if that makes sense or not)~ when you say you are 1/2, do you imply you are 1/2 asian? it's 6:30am here in Cali and i haven't slept all night..so, im very slow right now in absorbing any sort of info via the computer~
have a good day before i forget...hehehe..i think it's time for me to get ready for work~

i had a boss who was an insomniac, i think he averaged about 4hrs a night. i dunno how i get by, i can only sleep if i am about to collapse from exhaustion and if i try to get a real early night to make up for it, instead i wake many times and feel worse. So i go to bed around midnight when i am bushed, then get up 0530 and feel like i'm drunk.
So as long as i keep to that schedule it's not too bad.
Now go to work!, then when i get home in a few hours there will be a few posts left for me to attack lol
