BEST SELLERS

In CD / DVD / Blu-Ray Media

Inexpensive compared to other brands. Large are for writing/labeling. Very few bad discs.

I tested this using Opti Drive Control at 6x, 8x, 12x, 16x with a variety of relatively new drives: Lite-On iHAS124 F, Sony Optiarc AD-7280S (basically the same as the 5280S that is still being sold at Newegg) and Pioneer BDR-2208 (BDR-208M). ODC measures parity errors and failures across a given disc, as well as how well-defined the pits and lands on the disc are (a.k.a. jitter). Basically, you want consistent low numbers - pay attention to the average amount of parity errors; maximum amount of parity failures; and jitter across the board - with no sudden spikes. It's best to use a variety of scanning drives and burning speeds to get a good idea of burn quality, since writing drives, reading drives, and media all vary. Given how awful some of the cheaper, more marginal optical media can be in these tests - for example some of the Ridata and especially Moser Baer discs (the latter sold right now under the Sony label) - I was pleasantly surprised by how well these performed. Even at 16x, quality is pretty solid, especially on the iHAS124F, but also on the 7280S. (The BDR208M had a parity failure maximum of 5 in a few of the tests so I'd say it didn't keep up; average parity error rate was still OK though.) I found there to be a quality advantage when dropping down to a burn speed of 8x, but the difference between 16x and 12x seems to be marginal (or even sometimes detrimental). There also seems to be little advantage of burning at 6x instead of 8x. In general, for all the drives, the average parity error rate didn't really change much as I used faster burn speeds, but the max parity failure number usually went up when jumping from 8x to 12x and above. In case anybody's interested, I've posted screenshots of my tests online that can be found by googling "Optodisc DVD-R myce" and looking at page 3 onward. In any case, if burn quality is important to you, you're on a budget, and have a relatively new burning drive, these appear to be a good option. tl;dr - no coasters, burns quickly and reads great.

I put 50gb of mp4s on these and it plays great on PS3 so far really happy

Burns perfectly.

Best DVD media out there.

Newegg has the best prices for Blank DVDs around and the shipping is really low. Love it

I have used well over 100 of these disks with No problem so far.

Price, Price, Price and when you add that with quantity, quality and fast shipping, it beats going to any store to pick up dvd-r's. A 30-pack of cheap maybe it'll burn maybe it'll complete a coaster set will cost you around the same price before taxes as Maxell's 50-pack quality DVD-R's.

I used Verbatim for last 8 years and they are amazing! This is the only brand I can trust for a long life and for no fails. I'm an event videographer and I burn this BDs a lot.

I do all kind of videos from mt Go Pro and remaster old 4:3 videos and never had a BD disc not record right. Been using them for about two years!

From the second you take these out of the pack you can tell they are quality disks. They are thicker and flex less than the cheap disks I got on here (O.Q.). I have had 13 successful burns at 6x using Imgburn. I picked up 4-10 pack spindles while they were on sale.
