I don't know what's being sold this year, but last year I got the Samsung I have losted in my sig, which was cheap, and there have been 0% coasters, so far. That's for data backup, DVD9 -> DVD5, PS2 backup, PS1 backup, CDRom -> CDRom, DVDRom -> DVDRom. Basically the lot, in other words. I've found TDK and Verbatim discs to be good, but even the el cheapos I've used have all worked 100%. Just shop around, probably go for a 'brand name'. Hopefully someone else knows a bit more than I do on this subject. Best of luck getting a good one.

If you live in the US, you can't really go wrong with the NEC 3540A for a DVD burner. Good ratings, and it's cheap (under $40 with free shipping) on newegg. I don't how much it retails for in international markets, though.

Sony DRU-800A they are on sale at Circuit City
for 69.99 after rebates.
You will pay 99.99 and have a $30 mail in rebate
I have the older DRU-700A and it works great
and can burn any media type most people will use
+R, -R, RW, Dual Layer, CD-R
