Those fuji are most likely made in taiwan,and they do use lower quality manufacturers like fujifilm-03 on some of the taiwanese dash.

I'd go with the verbs,but that's too much money for them. You should be able to get them at best buy/office max/or office depot for $15 a 50 pk.Same with the fuji.There should be a sale on the verbs at one of those stores starting sunday.

Be cautious on those verbs. Some burners like my benqs have issues when I burn them at 2.4x or 4x. I have to bump up the burn speed on them to at least 8x on their 16x rated media.

Yo klinger. Burn those +16x verbs at 8x buddy. I'm not sure what burner drive you have,but benqs love those babies and don't burn them at 2.4x-way too many errors.

Personally,i prefer to Lite-on ,it seems not have such problems on burning speed.

and about the verbs,maybe you'll be interested in this.

how fast is ur burner CAPABLE of burning them too? what is your make and model of your dvd burner? if it's an older model, MAKE SURE your firmware is up to date to handle the 16x rated MCC004s, if your burner is TOO OLD, it might just not be able to recognize them...

will need to know the make and model of your burner 1st, once we get that straightened out, firmware is the key to burning them @8x~ :) assuming your firmware is up-to-date, i can imagine your burner will burn them @4x, but i strongly suggest you NOT BURN THEM ANY SLOWER than that on 16x rated Verbatim media, there is ABSOLUTELY NO NEED for people to burn 16x rated media @2.4x these days, you will be doing YOURSELF a disfavor :)
