What's the size of the files you're trying to burn?

You only want to use +R, not -R. Verbatim made in Singapore.
As to where to get them, it depends on where you live.

If they're not Verbatim +R dl, you're taking a chance that some will work and some may not. You may be able to remove languages you don't need thus making the size of your project smaller and then compress with Shrink. I always use DVD Rebuilder.
