    Buying DVD-R media

    I've ordered a DVD writer and want to get DVD-R's. Can anyone give me any websites so I can compare prices.

    Thanks K401

    I just want to pass on a warning to you about cheap DVD-R media. You can get disks for $1.55 or even less now I think, but that cheap stuff doesn't write as well, (about 1/3 of my MeritLine disks have read errors after I write them) and the cheap disks won't even play on some standalone DVD players. I find the more expensive (about $5 - $6) disks from Apple or Verbatim to work without a hitch, and play flawlessly on any player that can play DVD-Rs.

    In short, the extra money is well worth it.

      I burnt over 100 of the cheap 2.00 DVD-r and I have a A0-3 burner. No problem with any of them.
      Plus the company has a return policy if any of the DVD-r are defective.

        Try www.lynxdv.com/estore

        Note they are in the UK but since your location is not shown! then this may be of no use.

        I have had no problems with my 104 burner and these DVD-r's
