Pros: The discs I received were made in Singapore. I have no experience with the ones made in other countries, but have had great experiences with these ones. I haven't had a single coaster in nearly a year since I started strictly using Verbatim media with my new burner. I have gone through several of these DVD+DL 20 packs, and this is the cheapest I have ever seen them.

Cons: Drinks need coasters. I might actually have to buy coasters now because I don't get any from Verbatim media.

Overall Review: The packaging is newer than the packaging shown in the picture (it's purple/blue instead of blue/white).
