I'm guessing it's the same MAXELL002 that's in Videohelp's database:

http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia.php?selectmedia=2264#comments

Looks good from the reviews.

-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.

Those are Hitachi made Maxells. Maxell is a subsidiary of Hitachi, so yes they used to make thier own. I think the 16X Maxells are CMC or Prodisc now, not too sure though.

The 8X DVD+R Maxell (Made In Japan by Hitachi Corp.) is top notch, it is ranked as "1st class media" along with the famous Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim. I've been using those (8X DVD+R Maxell "MIJ by Hitachi Corp.") over hundreds and hundreds and I've never encountered any playback issues whatsoever.

I used nothing, but genuine Taiyo Yuden, Maxell (MIJ) and Verbatim.
