just wondering if the ty's that meritline is advertising are the real deal or not. This is what the add reads at the bottom of the screen.
Manufacturer: Taiyo Yuden
Manufacturer Part#: DVD+R47ZZSB8 (Made in Japan)
Media Code: YUDEN00T02


Media Type: DVD+R, DVD Plus R Blank Media
Storage Capacity: 4.7GB
Recording Speed: 1X - 8X
Top Surface: Silver Thermal Lacquer
No Stacking Ring

Does this sound like the real things? Is Meritline reputable? Any info would be great. Thanks!

See Doc's sticky thread regarding TY. He's the TY master around here and there is a lot of info in his thread.

Quoted from Doc's post:

4x dvd-r = TYG01 / GD00xxxx
8x dvd-r = TYG02 / GG00xxxx
16x dvd-r = TYG03 / GH00xxxx

4x dvd+r = YUDEN000T01 / i don't know cuz i don't have any :P
8x dvd+r = YUDEN000T02 / TG00xxxx
16x dvd+r = YUDEN000T03 / TH00xxxx


BTW your MID code matches the MID on the TY's I just bought from SuperMediaStore.com (YUDEN00T02). And yes, Meritline is reputable. Just stay away from NewEgg.com for TY's. In another post someone posted they received fake TY's.

Check out this link to spot fake TY's.
