Customer Review: It's the packaging, fellas!!
Summary: 5 Stars
You offered FREE SHIPPING and an excellent price for these blank DVDs, which I have already been using for more than a year, and are in my opinion the BEST DVDs on the market! But you failed on the packaging! Your warehouse people put the heavy spindle pack of 100 disks into a box that didn't match the shape, then padded it with lightweight, vulnerable air bags. First thing that happened during shipping was that the spindle pack, rolling back and forth inside the box, burst all four air bags, leaving only a few small empty plastic envelopes in an otherwise empty carton, with the spindle pack still rolling back and forth, or bouncing up and down. Miraculously, none of the blank DVDs was damaged during their wild ride. I not only recommend, but URGE your shipping people to use WADDED PAPER instead of these air bags for such heavy objects!!!
Customer Review: TDK DVDs are great!
Summary: 5 Stars
TDK DVDs are great. It's the shipping that sucks. Every spindle of TDK, or any other kind of discs I've received from Amazon have been badly packed, and the spindls and cases have arrived broken, or even shattered. The Amazon shipping department hasn't a clue how to pack heavy, delicate plastic 100 Disc spindles. They use a minimal amount of packing material on only the TOP side of the item. The bottom side is against bare cardboard box, so they smash the first time they roll down one of those 20 foot roller ramps and suddenly stop up agaist something hard, and another, heavier box rams that one.
Fortunately, I have empty spindles that I put the discs from the smashed Amazon-shipped spindles into. The Prices and service are great. The spindle cases don't survive the trip.
Customer Review: Great Discs
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not sure why so many people seem to have had trouble with these discs. I would imagine it's a few of the following things: Their burner needs replaced, their computer is too old/slow or they are trying to do something crazy (overburn, etc.).
I've bought TDK several times, and these specific DVD's twice now, I haven't had a bum in the lot (I've used 125+ out of the 200 I bought.) I would imagine that if you have problems with *any* CD/DVD, it can be attributed to your computer, not the discs themselves. Yes, you can get a dud, but it's usually physically damaged. I've burned thousands of discs on multiple computers and the only time I've ever run across problems was when there was an issue with the burner or the software.
Customer Review: Better Than Expected
Summary: 5 Stars
Due to limitations with my computer system, burning dvds at 16X speeds often result in bad uncompleted dvds if the blanks are not of the highest quality (that includes Memorex). I usually burn at 4X and 8X in order to not create so many useless coasters. Decided to try a few of these at 16X - WOW not a single mistake yet. I'm back down to 8X with these, no use taking chances. Am impressed with the quality and better thickness and stiffness of this brand of blank dvd+r discs so far. Only downside to 100-count spindles is that they are heavier than 50-count spindles without any extra case strength.Customer Review: Never A Dud
Summary: 5 Stars
I just love TDK recordables. I've been burning DVDs for I guess 6 or 7 years now, and I have yet to EVER have a TDK come out bad. On average, I burn about 50-60 DVDs per month. The DVD burners I use can read/write both +r and -r.
Sometimes I will be out shopping and see another brand on a special sale (mostly memorex) and I buy it, but it never seems to fail that several of them will end up being coasters!
So whenever possible, I stick with TDK and purchase either the +r or -r depending on which is lower in price at the time, and always in the 100 packs.
