Sorry, the subject line should be "TO the people . . . . (no, I wasn't stuttering . . )

Mods: I don't know if xreferencing post from other forums in AD is frowned upon, but I found this very enlightening.

I reinforces my decision to use only TY Premium or Verbatim.

To the folks who use off-brand media and then come here asking why their backups don't work reliably, THIS IS WHY!!!!!

Actually a post like this should be in every forum where burning is involved.
Though if members would only read it then probably the majority of problems would be solved.

Another problem in forums is that some promote using cheap media. They say they work perfectly fine and blah blah blah. But what they don't realize is if your lucky to get cheap media to work on your Wii system, that the cheap media will degrade faster then the premium media. So in the long run your making up the price difference (which isn't much) by buying premium media that last longer.
