@ paradyme: i just find it offensive that in the media posts you are trying to use a subtle but sarcastic form of launguage to mailign various members of the forum.No ones done anything to you but you continually push the boundaries to see how far you can get away with it.
You have your views and so does every one else but the way you come across , you seem to be making it very personal.

Think your wrong gear79, he's probably in a corner thinking all those wonderful thoughts on who his next target is............

@catfreak , hey i was wondering if those Ricohjpn (16x)office depot disks are as good as the (8x) office depot riteks??
Nope, the OD 16X code out to RICOHJPN and don't test out as well with the Nero CD/DVD Speed testing program. I've since switched to the FUJI MIJ's. Don't get me wrong, if you can still find the 8X at a good sale price, get them, but my humble opinion is to stay away from the 16X until they go back to Ritek again.

After reading all the posts, one thing that strikes me,
the best media is still to be decided, and that will be the media that lasts and still plays/reads flawlessly in 20/30 or more years time.
So far I've backed up over 800 dvd & games all scan well, but I'm more interested in how they'll scan, as I said, Years down the line.
...and that we don't know.
I find this site very knowledgeable and usually courteous, which sets it apart from a lot of sites, it be kool if we all try and keep the digs out of the posts.

@ashj - hear, hear on the media, and on the comment re the 'digs'.
thankfully the stupid comments seem to have ceased (for now) and hopefully the person who keeps doing it will have the maturity to keep it that way in future.

The only thing worse than being talked about ! Is not being talked about ! Don't worry about ParaDyne ! some people just enjoy hearing their own voice I guess ! If someone has experience & knowledge on or in any subject ! Be it Dvd Technology Like You & the Doc exspecially knowledge gained by first hand excperience in the trenches ! You have to respect that ! If I'd have found out about afterdawn.com sooner I would'nt have bought Ultran 4X DVD-R craP a couple of years ago ! But I did & llearned from it (DON'T BUY CRAP!) lol! Now I try and research everything and anything if i can before buying ! With a little help from my friends ! Thanx Y'all ! Also I agree that you don't have to agree with everyone on every subject but this isn't a fight room ! You can respectfully disagree with anyone or their opinions but ! people shouild'nt be dogging each other out & I don't mean you guys either ! Besides if you got mad & left Who would laugh at us Dumpster Dummies ! I guess it takes all kinds though ? ANYWAYS !CREAKY & dOC & EVERYONE ELSE - Happy Holidays ! & Happy Burning!!!!

gear79 Well when I get a good diving day I find the covers still on most of the cases ! Often the dvd's are even still in the cases too ! albeit either they've been run thru the DIMPLE-ATOR /DATA -DESTROYER ! or they do the quick & dirty version and just scratch then up with a sharp object or knife ! have found a couple About four undamaged movies - 2 copies of Crash ! 1 copy of the shining brideof chucky 1 copy & 1 copy of 28days later ! Last time I dove I only found 7 cases but found 7 cd's intact in their jewel cases so not a total loss anyway? Why would you worry about finding the covers when you can download them ? Other than saving money on Paper & ink? Just curious ya' see! In any case (LOL!) Happy Burning & Happy Holidays-gear79

Blame the change on Blockbuster's new policy of ordering lots of copies, then offering them as pre-viewed DVD's a few weeks later. They keep the rental in the original DVD case all the way until they sell it as a previewed. In the old days all new DVD's were transferred into the generic blockbuster DVD case and later returned to a wholesaler, at least according to the local BB manager here in Charlotte. The times they are a changin'.

blivetNC- & friends ! I think the case thing may be regional Here in central louisiana I'm still finding the cases & Most are the lockable /rental cases ! Occasionally they still have the yellow lock still in place along with the movie ! And most have the label/cover intact as well Recently they(BB) have been demlling =Destroying dvd's and dumpimg them with the cases ! some with the Dimpler of DOOM (DATA DESTROYER) or just scratching/gouging the dvd with sharp objects ! but I manage to find one or two that they missed so That's cool! If I thought it would work I's buy a resurfacer? For the scratched ones anyways ! I need to make another didving session but whether I can today depends on if my wife takes the truck! Hope You all Find lot's of DVD's Games & Cases In SANTA bb'S SLEIGH/DUMPSTER ! Happy Holidays & Happy Hunting , Safe Diving < Happy Burning & " FREE IS FREE !!!!! "
