gronimo18- Well as long as your happy with their Prices and service that's great !!! I've never ordered from them so I can't speak from personal experience ! But Shop4tech.com does'nt have the best reputation or atleast they did'nt for quite awhile ? I understand about the free shipping though !Whats the use of getting a Killer deal on Blank Disc and then having to pay so much in shipping cost that you could buy cheaper retail & locally even when you include taxes? The Other two retaiers/Online vendors they mentioned Supermediastore .com & Meritline.com I have ordered from and always got great service and reasonable prices ! They sometimes offer Free shipping on Bulk quantities of media that your looking for and smaller quantities too ! you just have to be vigilant in watching for the sales ! If you don't mind Retail/ Branded Media - you can often get it locally at your Bestbuy ,CircuitCity, Officemax , Officedepot, Walmart, Samsclub, costcO , ect...again watching for the sales . The Choice remains yours though ! if Shop4tech,com is doing right by you & your happy with them Then Shop on buddy!!!

I like Shop4tech and have been using them for ages, usually for Taiyo Yuden Silver Thermal Lacquer 52X CD-R Media. Unfortunately though, they don't carry the TYG02 Premium line DVD's which are my disc of choice.
SuperMediaStore usually also has free shipping.
Either way get on all the mentioned vendor's mailing lists as they all offer many special deals monthly. I like Shop4tech's the best as they offer percentages off on all product's, sometimes up to 15% off.
My latest toy bought at 15% off ($8.50).

They say you can but it's not advisable. It works pretty good, but it's kinda tricky getting the disc out (without touching the surface) once it drops.

Looks like a neat gadget but Me I'll Just take one off the top as I need it . I could see where it might come in handy though in a real Office/bussiness Vs. A home office/computer room/bedroom or Den . But if it works & you like it that's what counts Right?

I figured as much. MY BAD. Had to try though. I suppose that shouldnt surprise me though. By the way. I get these scans on a daily basis. Any questions let me know. :)

By the way. In the future i'll make sure that the image size is only 640 x 480. That seems to be the typical size on both afterdawn and cdfreaks.

Agreed. Last ones I had coded as CMC MAG (they may all code that way, don't know). They may scan good today, but who knows what you will have a year from now.

SORRY!!! Im sorry creaky. I thought that might happen. I will not do that large size anymore. For myself is all good, but for upload i will stick with 640 x 480 (ROUGHLY).
