Looking For Some Decent Quality Blank Dual Layer DVD's
13 replies, posted
Basically the title. It'd be great if they weren't that costly as well.
I'm not having problems finding them, in fact I've found [URL="http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=Blank+Dual+Layer+DVD%27s&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=15832707826822398711&sa=X&ei=wpHdTZavEano0QHd4NW5Dw&ved=0CHAQ8wIwAg&biw=1920&bih=1059#"]a kodak 50 pack for 20$[/URL] but I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions.
Thanks

Those don't have solid reviews, 2.5stars and many reviews saying they're unreliable and 50% don't work.
I'm looking at the verbatim packs. They get roughly 4.5 stars and it's 22$ for 20 so that's not [I]too[/I] bad
the verbatim dual layers are probably the best, i always use them and i get good clean burns
When it comes to blank CD's and DVD's, I swear by Verbatim.
Never have i experienced a bad burn with them.
Also I buy them in cakeboxes of 100 in each stack.
Yeah, Verbatim makes some quality DVDs, I tell you what.
Verbatim is good, but they're pretty expensive
Getting a 90% fail rate on discs that are 50% cheaper ends up more expensive than Verbatim.

That's why you buy budget disks from well known brands, not generic brands?
For dual layer DVDs never use anything other than Verbatim unless you want a couple coasters per pack

Like... Verbatim?

Verbatim is nowhere near to be considered as a "cheap alternative" in both terms of price and quality
I buy nothing but budget blank discs (often with less than perfect reviews) and have never experienced a failed burn on my current burner (~7 year old LG) :iiam:
Some burners are probably better than others at coping with poorly made discs
Tbh last time i bought dual layer discs i bought 2 packs of these:

And all 20 discs worked fine without a single bad burn, but that was just me, i would still advise verbatim
