FYI: Good deal on Sony discs

[BK24]

The ones here are MIT's.

watch out for made in India with the verbatims, they are highly variable and trickling into the US, I look forward to India getting it's act together, the company MBI that manufactures there has had some of the best media.
Some of the non TY(taiyo yuden)mid codes from sony have been very good.
Except for MIJ media it's all a gamble.
