I just bought a 50 spindle of these from Ebay and printed off my first disc. AMAZING!!! The print surface is shiny and looks like a professionally made dvd...even better than many I've seen. These discs are hands down the best inkjet printable disc on the market. They make regular Ty's, Verbs, Maxell, etc look like crap! For anyone whose held off on getting these...DO IT! I have the Epson R200 and it printed on these perfectly. I mean it's like comparing a turd to ice cream. Haven't tried the fingerprint/smear/water test yet...paid .70 a disc and wanna wait til it dries completely. I'll let you guys know.
fettfan, we are all WELL aware of how good Taiyo Yuden media is. just do a simply forum search and you will see.BTW i would steer clear of buying media off e-bay being theres a good chance you can get fakes. you're better of getting them from either

I would not trust the media id code as this is easily faked.I would rather check the following,that's the best way to know if your media is genuine TY or not.

P.S:And as mentioned by MichaelP1,never buy TY medias on ebay,you'll most probably end up with fake ones.Better buy from trusted places like mentioned above.
