Yeah, you gotta save those really good discs for your own personal backups. The really good movies deserve the best media. I will say: Beware of the Made In India Verbatims. The New Packaging can easily fool you. Look at the labels before you buy. Made in Taiwan:> OK.
Made In India:> Might be OK. I don't take the chance.
I KNOW the MIT's are GOOD. I am unsure about the Made in India.
I have heard some bad reports about those.
Happy Memorial Day to All!

My local Sears has a bunch of Maxell MIJ 4x DVD-R media on clearance. I did not jump on these immediately because I am used to using +Rs, which I book-type. Are these too good to pass up?
BTW, I found a lone spindle of Sony-branded 8x TY. Of course, I bought those, using Best Buy's ad to match prices. I suspect that this pack was the last one I will ever find, as I've been scoping these out everywhere I go and they are extinct. :(, sniff, tear.

Maxell DVD-R 4x (MXL RG02....)
Maxell DVD-R 4x (TYG01.......)-Which means if they code out as either of these two media codes you should be getting Maxell /hitachi 's = Made by maxell in japan or taiyo Yuden made in japan Either way good stuff assuming your Burners are compatable with the Older / 4X media ? Hope that helps answer your question ?

I got some of those dash shiny verbs in an ebay auction that came bundled with one of my Benq 1640's.Yours shouldn't be fakes.
They have a mirror look to them,but nothing special for that price. Some people would probably slap a sticker label on them,but I labeled it with a sharpie.
You can find them at meritline.com,supermediastore.com,and rima.com. Sometimes you can get the same thing with taiyo yudens for under 25 cents each.Both Ty and Verbatim use Advanced Metal AZO dye.
bunnyrip: I'll attest to the MIT sony being some very fine media. I used to rate them around ricohjpn,but now they seem superior to ricohjpn media. I wouldn't burn them over 8x though.

Matter of fact I burn those Sony MIJ's at 8x with Perfect results. I could burn them at 12x. But I burn them at 8x. Which BTW is their "rated speed". They are sooo nice!
