Customer Reviews
Decent disks but not good with some burners,
by Susan Williams, 2010-07-22
This is the best bang for the buck I've seen for recordable DVDs, provided that they work well with your DVD burner. I have a Memorex 16x DVD-R DL/DVD-Rewritable burner which I bought maybe 8 years ago, but has always worked quite well and I use for practically all of my burning. However these particular discs would burn normally part way then fail for some reason when I burned discs at maximum speed with PowerISO and perhaps also the Windows DVD burning utility. This happened every time I used my Memorex burner, but I didn't want to waste discs trying to figure out the "perfect" parameters to make these discs work with that drive. My Memorex burner has worked flawlessly with Verbatim, Memorex, Maxell and Sony discs in the past BTW. On the other hand, when using my Dell Latitude D830's internal TSSTcorp DVD+-RW TS-L632H burner with the same programs, the Amazon discs worked faithfully every instance that I can recall. I'm not an expert on this, so perhaps there is something about this disc + Memorex burner combination that makes them incompatible yet the disc + Dell burner compatible? So I guess you have to take a risk if trying these for the first time, or perhaps see if another reviewer with the same burner was able to make it work. Now the Amazon DVD-R DLs are an ESPECIALLY great deal, but since my Memorex drive is my only DL burner I am especially hesitant to waste money trying those...;_;
failed all discs tried. Useless,
by J. Hsieh, 2010-07-21
tried about 5 or 6 of them, all failed, in several different burners, while other brand of DVD-Rs work all right. The rest of them are going to trash.
High Error Rate for Burned Video,
by Jobba, 2010-07-17
We have used about 10 of these for burning videos, and 2 have already failed. Within 10 minutes of play, the brand new dvds freeze and stop playing. We tried 3 different players, same problem at the same time, with both dvd's.
We ordered a different kind and will be throwing these away since they are totally unreliable.
If you are okay with a percentage of failures, then these are a good price. Hence the two stars. But if you want reliability, keep looking.
good,

I ordered the DVD +R and received the DVD-R, okay this time but would like only what I ordered
Can't trust them for backup,
by MaryEllen Sager, 2010-07-15
I don't know and don't particularly care about write speeds. I've had no problems at all burning to these DVDs, so I expected no problems in reading the DVDs. So far there have been 3 DVDs that are just not even recognized to be in the drive. I've lost count of the number of DVDs that the drive has had trouble reading. Some of the DVDs I've had to try 4 times before it would recognize it and read the data. However, the other brand DVDs haven't had any problems. I am Not A Happy Customer at this point, but what is the point of having a warranty on DVDs, if they write, but you can't read the data off of them, you're still just as screwed.
Buy the Verbatims.
