Affordable DVD+R DLs?

[Joe Beaudoin Jr.]

Does anyone know of any good, yet economical DVD+R DLs? What brand would be my best bet?

Basically, I'm backing up some of my DVDs because I'm noticing that some DVD sets don't have the durability of others, and I would be pissed if I had to go out and rebuy a set just because one disc didn't work.

Ok, I've narrowed it down to two brands: TDK and Verbatim.

So far, TDK seems to get more bang for the dollar, with a spindle of 25 discs. On Newegg, it's $32.99.

Thoughts?

Ok, after reading this guide (http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm), I'm going to get the TDK discs. Apparently they're high quality, so I'm going with that.

I wish I'd found this guide sooner, since that would have saved me from wasting my money on this Memorex garbage. About seven of the discs are now frakking coasters. :mad:

Datawrite work will all my Macs and they're cheap.

Taiyo Yudens are good apparently.

Verbatim are variable. you need to get the 'premium' ones.

TDK? I dunno, but they did good c-90 cassettes.
