Hi all

I just bought some DVD's from Big Pockets they are ZERO DEFEX DVD+R DL 8.5GB/240mins/2.4x.
I came to Wright to them and the program was 8.0GB but when I put 1 in my DVD player it was showing it was only 7.96GB I know that disks lose some space when formatted EG= hard Drives 4.7gig DVD's But the difference here is over 1GB that is a lot to lose

I have tried to Email Zerodefex.com but my emails keep getting returned by the postmaster telling me my Server is listed as an open relay ?
