Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Verbatim 95310 8.5GB 6x Double Layer DVD+R DL Discs (20pk Spindle)Customer Review: Best media hands down Summary: 5 Stars
After trying every brand available that I could get my hands on, in both retail and online, and local computer shows, and burning tons of coasters (over the past 22 yrs since the first 1x CD-R drives came out), I decided that IMHO, Verbatim is the only brand for which my money will be well spent. I used to shop for media based upon price, and I was 'rewarded' for that by ending up with at least 10% of the discs failing to burn properly, or failing to verify after the burn. This is with CD-R, DVD+R, and DVD+R DL media. Most other 'brands' do not actually manufacture their own media, instead they buy mass-produced generic discs from China and then brand them under their own name, i.e., Maxxell Memorex, HP, TDK, Imation. The actual OEM of these discs can vary from batch to batch depending upon where they are sold, and the quality control seems almost entirely absent other than a visual inspection if there is in fact a blue AZO dye cyanoacrylate layer. There are only 2 other brands besides Verbatim that I know that manufactures their own media, Mitsui (for their 'Gold' product line) and Taiyo Yuden, but unfortunately these brands are not available as widely as Verbatim, and almost never at retail.
I am on a Mac since 2005 and have used a variety of drives from Pioneer, Samsung, and LG, and use the media mostly for data backup, and occasionally for making video DVDs. Using Roxio on Windows before that, as well as Nero, but since I moved to the Mac, I started with Roxio 7 and now am on Roxio Toast Titanium 9 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and have zero issues with the media, or the software.
I will ONLY ever buy Verbatim media from now on. This purchase I burned all 25 DVD+R DL discs, with no issues, no coasters, and for that, it was WELL worth it. Do yourself a favor and dont buy crappy discs unless you want to waste time and money.
