Is lightscribe DVD media fairly cheap compared to regular DVD media?
Which brand is reliable? TY, Verbatim, Sony?

officemax has HP lightscribe media on sale this week but I don't think HP DVD media is that good.

I'll be picking up some of there CDR media.

I just bought 30 Verb 8X+R (code out as MCC003) off of Supermediastore.com for 39.99. Figures out as 1.33$ a disc. Don't guess I'll be burning too many labels just yet. I would stay away from the HP media if at all possible.

MS Windows XP MCE SP2, Intel P4 3.20 GHz, 2.0 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce FX5600, Seagate 7200 rpm 200GB HDD, Sony SDMHS93 19" LCD, Field Value
Audio Adapter Creative SB0317 Audigy LS Sound Card, Liteon models,SHM-165H6S, 167to6c, All burns exclusively on genuine Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim media!

the ONLY lightscribe media to trust is verbatim.
TY or Sony does not make Lightscribe.
hp is junk..

when on sale.. at best buy mainly..
its either a 10 pack for $7.99
or a 25 pack for $25
it does average to about the same. those will come in (+) format. depending on your lg burner.. it should be able to booktype those to dvd rom and you will have no issue.

and you want / need to learn about booktyping.. check this link

your cdr media for LS... regular price is $20 for a 30 pack..

hope that helps
