| 762936 | 2009-04-07 19:42:00 | I think the biggest problem is people trying too burn to fast. I'm useing Verbatim DVD+R at the moment. Been burning at 4x. Tried one at 20x and ended up as a coaster. :) |

Below average according to some research I prefer using TDK or Imation You'll have to keep reminding yourself because not many others will . Verbatim are usually rated above Imation . 50 and none worked is hard to believe . |

| 762940 | 2009-04-07 21:54:00 | Yep - always found verbatim to be very good. And imation, sony, mitsubishi, and pretty anything made by Taiyo Yuden. TDK are below average, SKC are awful. |

| 762942 | 2009-04-07 22:17:00 | I avoid Transcend anything. I think it hits the low end market IMHO. | Bantu (52) | ||
| 762943 | 2009-04-07 22:44:00 | I was using Imation for ages but then occasionally i would get 1 spindle that would have 5 -10 failures out of 25. So i would put it down to a dodgey batch. I have been through 3 burners in two years now also... But thats another story. I have now got our supplier to get Verbatim and 100% successful burns this month from 200 discs, and that is verifing all disks and burning at full speed x16. |

| 762944 | 2009-04-07 22:48:00 | Verbatims are made by Mitsubishi Chemical Corp - The media code starts with MCC. Verbatims are like a cheap TY: significantly cheaper, with about 80-90% of the quality. The burn quality depends on your burner as well. The fastest and slowest burn speeds always have worse quality (in my experience) than about half the media's speed. |
