Hey, i am looking to buy some taiyo yudens because imo, they are the best media out there to buy. I have gone through 50 dvd-r's in 13 days. However, i need to buy more now, and the cheaper of the 2 are the dvd+r's becausae they are on sale. Are these as good as the -r's, i am really worried aobut compatibility. Anyone have any suggestions? Also, i live in the vancouver area, more specifically burnaby (British Columbia) and i was wondering if anyone knows of any good retailers for buying these. I, so far, buy off NCIX; however, it is costing me $50 for a 50 pack and i want a better price. I am not sure aobut buying online due to quality and stuff. Any help is appreciated.

I have been trying to buy TY retail. I cant find them. I am in Toronto and also pay $50 for a 50 pack of inkjet printables from www.blankmedia.ca. I prefer inkjet printables to non-printable media. So I think they cost more.
They have good prices on non-printable regular DVD media. So check them out.
I do not know if the inkjet printables come any cheaper. If anyone knows about a cheaper place in Canada, please post it.

meritline.com and rima.com will ship TY to Canada. They are about $50.00 per 100. I have no idea what the shipping would be though. I am in the US and have used rima.com in the past and have been pleased.

rimi has REDICULOUS shipping charges to Canada. blankmedia.ca is pretty much the best prices we can get. I don't mind spending $1.15 a disk roughly when it comes to TY printables.

I have to agree. With the exchange rate, shipping and handling and duties and taxes...its not worth it to order from outside of Canada. I do hope blankdmedia.ca prices drop as they become more well known.

I notied they deal too. But I use inkjet printables for my backups. And for general projects I am stocked up on Maxell which was onsale at FutureShop 100 pack sindle for $50 2 wks ago. If i didnt have them I would have gotten the TY's for this price since its a great deal.

Are the fujifilm dvd-r's as good as the dvd-r cuz i will definately buy those since that is an amazing price or else i will have to buy my 50 pack of dvd+r's for 50 at ncix.com. I don't want to order online so bestbuy would be a good choice, same with future shop but i don't see a good deal like that anymore :S Thanx everyone

I just bought a 100pack of 8x dvd-r taiyo yuden's for 80.99 on blankmedia.ca. I was wondering how good of quality this site is, i'm not really worrying because they're yudens, the best there is. However,it's just a thought.

My personal experience is blankmedia.ca is good. I have made 4 purchases all arrived quickly and in good order and was genuine TY discs. I did send back the Ritek RiData since my burner does not seem to like them and got my refund very quickly. I use inkjet printables which are more expensive. But I will continue to shop there. Now if the inkjet printable TY's could come down in price!

Can you tell me if the prices on blankmedia's site are in CDN Dollars or USD?
