What works best for you? I'm new to the 360 scene, but I've always used Ridata for DVD media and have had no issus. Just wanted to know if anyone else uses them for the 360 because they are a hell of alot cheaper than Verbatim (which I know some people swear by) and have never failed me.

I would say Verbatim made in singapore,but I guess it depends on the person.You can try out other brands and you may have similar results.Its a little risky though I think,because even if they are cheaper than the Verbatim discs you could end up with a big bundle of coasters if they don't work like you want them to.If you got time and money to spend I would say try out different media.If you don't then I would say get some Verbatim made in singapore as they are guaranteed to work even if they are a little expensive.If you do get Verbatims though make sure you get them made in singapore,because the discs made in india suck.

to check to see where they are made, just look on the label, it will say 'made in xxxxx' and i've used about 150 or the made in india ones, and have yet to have a single coaster, so i dont know why everyone is complaining about them.

I've used them too and got a few bad discs. Those didn't even burn more than 3% before they crapped out. Since I couldn't find the Singapore ones I used some Sony DVD+R DL discs and they worked OK but not great. Out of 25, maybe 6 were bad.
