I'm looking to either get some TY or Verbs of the 8x dvd-r type. I'm just wondering which product produces the best quality of picture on the disc. Also, does white or silver produce the best results?

Thanks for the help guys.

the silver give you a cool holagraphic look that is brighter and I think "cooler". The white ones are good but not holographic like the silver ones! I use both... but I use Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD+Rs.

I only use TY and Verb white inkjet printables (and the occasional MAXELL MIJ). The Verbs have a more glossy finish, and produce slightly "richer" color. The MAXELL and TY surfaces are similar... They all look the same after I coat with Patricia Nomick's, though...

Been using the Verbatim 8X -R's.

Really happy w/ results.

I've heard but not seen that, Verbatim's printables surface is better than TY's .

I think they both have matte finish. Would be nice if they came out w/ glossy finish.

Try these out.........

It's a sample 10 pack of different printable -R's, so you can be the judge ????????
