Teon's are horrible.
They are CMC Mags and you will have major playback issues in the future if you use this type of media.
Stick to TY or Verbs if you want great burns all of the time.

And stay away from the other 2 also - dynex can also be manufactured by cmc - been there done that:)
As aboz56 said stick with TY or Verbatim.
If your in the us http://supermediastore.com has some great deals on TY right now.

I've used some teon +8x cmags and a few of the 50 pack of Playo +8x that I picked up for $3 at staples during their day after thanksgiving sales.All were under 10 cents each during those sales.
They burned ok for me,but I reduced the backup target and burned them at 2.4x and 4x.I also didn't put anything important on them.I'd hate to see someone backup their OS with this crappy media.
Here's a scan of one of those playo with the Mid code of AML-002:
Not very good,but playback was perfect on my newer magnavox stand alone player.Some of the pickier stand alones will have problems with the cmag and aml media.

@NOTU...Post help? Sorry, man, the only help anyone could advise you to get would be a refund from wherever you bought those garbage discs. For DL stick with Verbatim. If you want to save a few bucks try Ritek and burn with ImgBurn but be prepared for a Coaster now and then.
