I haven't ordered media in awhile but did so last week.
I ordered TY DVD-R.
The original image in the ad read TY. The text of the ad read TY.
Only when you clicked on that image did a page open with the name Linkyo.
So, apparently, in my absence this vendor has worked out a private label deal with TY. That's fine but i have issues with what i believe is deceptive advertising. So, I plan to call them up later today to voice my disaproval and demand a full refund.
Having said all that......
I haven't been able to find a discussion on this forum about this product. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Run from those disks,
Go to Supermediastore.com for online sales with Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden, watch the weekly ads in your area for the brick and mortar vendors. I haven't looked at the ads this week but usually Verbatim or Sony or Office Depot's house brand can be found for a reasonable price.

If there is an Office Depot near you they have Maxell (Ritek F1) 100 packs on sale for $19.99 each. It seems to be good media in my tests....

Well the -R is Ritek F1. For awhile the +R was CMC but it may have changed to Ritek as well by now. Oh & your welcome!!

Well Ritek is good (Verbatim is better) & CMC is usable but not as good in my DVDInfopro tests as Ritek, Verbatim or Tayio Yuden. I've got some CMC Imation DVD's over a year old that still test ok. Some are data discs & some are video discs. I played 2 of those older CMC video discs in my DVD player & they were fine with no problems. I'm not saying it's great media though as there is better stuff out there. One was an 8x disc burned at 8x in my computer & the other was an 8x disc burned at 1x in the DVD recorder thats hooked up to the cable DVR. Oh & the discs were played in the player, not the recorder as I don't often play discs in the recorder since it's usually (but not running 24x7) recording older movies (TCM, the Plex channels, Fox Movie Channel & the Encore channels) plus a few TV shows from the DVR.
