 My recordable media of choice September 29, 2008
I burn a lot of DVDs - 3 or 4 per day lately - so I'm looking for quality and value when it comes time to buy more. That's why I love these Memorex DVD+R 100 packs. For me, Memorex and Sony have always stood apart, but I'm not giving any of my money to a company (Sony) that secretly installed root kit software with their music CDs. Besides, I've never had a problem with a single Memorex DVD (DVD-R or DVD+R) - and, while I've only burned a few on my DVD recorder, I've burned at least a couple hundred on my computer. I started out transferring long videos from my hard drive to individual discs; although those played fine on my standard DVD player as well as computer, I soon realized it was much too costly. Since I only rarely use my standalone DVD player anymore, I'm much happier filling as much as possible of the 4.7 GB of available space on each DVD+R. That means I can only watch those videos on a computer, but that's fine with me. It will be a different story, of course, when I finally get around to using my DVD recorder to transfer some of my old VHS tapes to DVD. There, you're looking at only 2 real-time hours of recording if you want the best quality transfer possible, although you can go up to four or six hours if video quality isn't a priority.
You don't burn anything to DVD without a reason, so you don't want to go out and buy the cheapest discs you can find. There's no good reason to pay too much, either, especially when you have these perfectly good Memorex DVD+R discs available in bulk for a pretty decent price.
Good DVD+R's at a reasonable price. September 8, 2008
I am happy with this purchase. So far the dics are all working well and in good condition. I did not have them come loose in the box in shipping as I saw some other reviews claim.

I read some unfavorable reviews here but went ahead and bought it because of its unusually cheap price. What a BIG mistake. Imagine spending hours and hours of burning bad discs. Even those seemingly good burnt ended up bad at the end of the movie. Is it rightfor Memorex to sell sub-standard products? My TDK discs were perfect compared to this. Stay away. It is not worth it....wonder why they priced it so low? Now you know

It's time to buy DVD blanks again,so I'm here on this page.
I had bought over 575 DVD blanks for the past 1 and half years since I was in Florida.
My first 175 DVD blanks was from memorex, very dissapointed, almost 20% (1 out of 5, or 2 out of 7)are defect products.
Everything becomes beautiful since I turned to TDK, no issues.
Between Memorex and TDK, I tried HQ (generic DVD blanks) also, surprisingly, these generic DVD blank products without a product logo on the surface performs quite well too. I ordered them from cdrdvdrmedia.com.
Well, generally speaking, it's a bad time to buy DVD blanks anywhere, because I used to get 100-pack TDK DVD+R for 25.99$(notice that 25.99 just passed the 25 dollar mark for free shipping for products sold by amazon, so you pay 26 dollars free and clear for 100-pack high quality TDK), now you can't get that deal anymore, I searched around, TDK all become 32 dollars for free shipping, thats essentially 22 dollar retail price plus shpping, lol. Anyway, I searched around, found this cheapest product on amazon.com, 100-pack memorex DVD+R, but yeah, the point here is that memorex sucks.
I guess I'll wait and see what happens next.
Memorex is my favorite blank DVD brand July 19, 2008
Only blank DVDs I buy now are Memorex and Sony. I got these 6 days after buying them and none were broken or scratched. Much cheaper than buying at Office Depot or Target. LOL@$40-50. Yeah right...
