GoldenGreen 16x 4.7GB Logo Top DVD-R Blank Media - 50 Packs Disc

Pros: Were $5 and had free shipping. No coasters yet. Don't know why they are rated so low

Cons: Did not come with spindle, luckily had an extra lying around. Not much space to write on front because of the design.

Pros: They look like discs.

Cons: Junk and only good for use as coasters. First seven did not burn properly. The eighth one supposedly completed successfully but won't play in the same drive that burned it. Go figure.

Pros: They were cheap. Newegg shipping was fast as always.

Cons: Every disc i tried to used i was given an error message of "disc unusable".

Overall Review: I put in an rma for a refund, but since i got them so cheap, it would cost more to ship them back than what i paid.

Pros: Works very well with my DVD burner. I have used about 35 discs so far and no problems whatsoever. Great price and quality.

Cons: Will be nice to have more write area.

Pros: It's a recordable DVD. No coasters yet

Cons: Usual moronic design (or lack thereof). Writing area is almost nonexistent.

Pros: Packaged amazing well, for once. I ordered ten 50-pack overwrap spindles, and Newegg shipped them in an OEM box, with bubble-packs in two of the empty spots. Which would have been good. But they went above and beyond, and double-boxed it, and padded the inner box against the outer box with solid foam rectangles. Arrived cross-country, in perfect shape. Thanks for caring, Newegg!

Cons: None that I can notice yet.

Overall Review: Newegg had discontinued "GoldenGreen" DVD-Rs for a while. The early batches I got were OPTODISCR016, which were GREAT. (Like the PlexDisc, which are also OPTODISCR016.) These new batches are CMC MAG.AM3, which is a little disappointing. The label said "Made in Taiwan", not "Made in China", so I'm surprised to find CMC media. Time will tell if these will hold up, I guess. CMC doesn't have the best reputation for lifespan, but perhaps their quality has improved in the last five years. The HP 50-pack overwrap spindles are also CMC MAG.AM3, and they seem high quality, so perhaps this isn't so bad overall.

Pros: Works. Got it on sale.

Cons: None so far. Wish it was on sale more often. Green label.

Pros: Great quality. Have yet to make a coaster. None of them were cracked when I got them.

Cons: Shrink wrapped, but if you have an old canister then it's not too much of a bother. No place to write on the disk. The disk is covered with the company name at the top and a wave sign at the bottom. With descriptions on the sides.

Overall Review: If you plan on marking these DVDs, get a DVD label maker.
