Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Verbatim 95102 4.7 GB up to 16x Branded Recordable Disc DVD-R (100-Disc Spindle)Customer Review: Verbatim coaster-free, lightening speeds and white surface dream Summary: 5 Stars
DVD media has only become stable in the last year. In a pack of 25 it's not uncommon to find a few producing coasters. Even after switching over to Sony for a span of three years I would expect to find some coasters. You get a run of them, usually near the end. If I got 20 good discs in a pack of 25 then that was a good break. Sometimes with Sony I would get less coasters, maybe 2 or 3 instead of 5, so I stuck with them.
In Feb 2008 I was forced to try Verbatim again. To be honest I felt that Verbatim came a close second but had never got the kind of quality discs I would expect from the brand. Verbatim are an established name but DVD mass production was unstable everywhere and I could easily get a pack of 25 with over ten defectives from the big names. Only Sony seemed the best bet and nobody was getting it perfect.
In 2008 Verbatim have managed to overtake the leaders and have gone away ahead. I was getting burn speeds of x 18 and all the discs in the pack worked without making coasters. Also the new white tops allow you to print on the disc. Sony did the white top for awhile, and it was a great idea, but dropped it. I believe they did this because it may have had an impact on disc quality (speed issues). Verbatim give you the white label which you can print or write on like it was paper, ultra fast burns and coaster free bundles.
This is now a huge step in the right direction. Finally in 2008 DVD media is starting to get the robustness that it needs. Its just a shame that Blu-ray technology has already arrived. We could have done with this DVD stability back in 2003 when DVD burning features became standard with most domestic PCs. The stability on the domestic scene is five years too late but finally it is here.
