A slow week, but since we're all smart shoppers and make hay while the sun shines we can manage during periods of drought ;-)

@akyllonen, yes they're made in Taiwan & not YUDENT002 . However, I have used these (The DVD+R) and I can tell you that they are Excellent Media. They code as Sony. In fact I haven't had any bad burns at all with these.
Use The Best Media for The Best Burns! TYs, Verbs,(Made in Taiwan) Sony MIJs (YUDEN000 T02), Sony Made in Taiwan DVD+R 16x, Maxell MIJ, RITEK G05.

Forgot a crucial detail - that Imation price is just for Black Friday and it is early bird (while supplies last and store opens at 6am).

My local Circuit city had Sony 50pack spindles for $17.99 Which is slightly better than the 25pack $8.99, and those were all made in Japan.

@akyllonen, Gotta correct ya:). I purchased 150 of this disc in 25 pack spindles for the special price of -$8.99 from Circuit City 4 weeks ago. All disc were made in Japan. Also with SONY it doesn't matter they don't make cheap quality media. Any DVD company can produce a bad disc or two. But overall it does not matter where there made. I have had both Japan and Taiwan made disc -R as well as +R. SONY 8x DVD-R is the best media in my opinion and can be purchased locally and on sale as mentioned. Excellent start time. DVD player does not have to track media content only to deliver errors. Just push play . I 'll be out to get some of these SONY soon.

I stand corrected. I've never seen 25pks from Japan...always the Taiwan ones.

Maybe not to you, but I never settle for the SONY coded ones when I can have the TY's at the same price.

I just got back from the Office Depot in Kalamazoo, MI. and got the last two 25 packs of Maxell's that they had. One is MIT and one is MIJ.
I want to get 8 but only got two. They said that they sold out quickly. I had to hunt to find them on the shelves.
I'm still happy. Anytime I can get quality Media for .20 ea I will :)
Cheers.

Here's my first Playo scan,burned at 4x on my benq 1620:
Better than cmag scans,not even close to verbatim or yuden000-T02 scans! Playback ok on my new magnavox stand alone. I wouldn't want to backup my OS with this stuff.

wow. they had plenty out here in san diego at the store i went to. i got two DVD+R packs and one DVD-R pack, plus a 1GB san disk USB drive for $30 AR. did pretty well except i'm pissed i didn't get there early enough for the 1GB SD memory card for my digicam ($30 AR). quickly swung by circuit city only to find their $10 512MB SD memory card sold out too. figures. ohwell. hopefully i can come up one for around that price before x-mas. i REALLY need to stop buying all this crap!!!!!!!!!
BTW, does this statement hold true for the office depot maxell's we just bought re: DVD-R packs?
Quote:
It's the dash that you have to be cautious of.Reports of cmags are emerging on the taiwanese dash format.For the dash,look for the japanese spindles.They are made by Hitachi.
i bought the one pack of DVD-R's in case i run across an old stand alone player. do you think i should take 'em back for another +R pack? would you say most stand alone players purchased in 2002 or later are compatible with the +R format? maybe 2003? do you recommend +R over -R?
