Yes they are, nice catch Chewy that is too high. Never purchased from that place, which seem to be a good thing.

Taiyo Yuden always get my vote, we continue to put out trouble free Taiyos for 3 years now to our clients, and haven't heard as much as a peep about compatibility or reliability problems.

Recently the local WalMart had SONY AccuCORE DVD +R 1x-16x discs SONY D21-000 for $10.94 per 50 pk. Are they any good.

Only paid $5 I will give them to my son to burn music on.

I've been using Memorex to burn my movies for years, but I have never used Ty or Verb the recommened brand. Are they that much of a different? Meaning, are they big different in picture quality and audio? To me Memorex is doing a B job for me. Does anyone have an input on this? Please, excuse me for being a beginner. Wish I have read these posting sooner.

[NightTran]

their quality are all over the place from good to very bad, when you hit one bad pack you will know it

[pquest]

Thanks NightTran! I will keep that in mind.

So, i'm guessing it will show the quality of its disk through SmartBurn, right? I just learn about SmartBurn from other discussions. I will most definitely test it today. And will pick up some Verb disks on the way home. =)
