Can anybody tell me abt the price of "Dvd-r Dual layer 8.5 gb" blank media . I tried getting it from some of the shops but it seems it's still not very popular and no info is available for its price as well. Checked some products listed at ebay also and they were showing an average price of 300 Rs. Is it so ? Cos the " Blank Dvd-r 4.7gb" cost around 15 Rs so i don't think dual layer could be tht much expensive.
Cheers

60 bucks for a normal DVD. WOW!!! :shock:
I was thinking about buying a DVD writer and thought that media was quite cheap now. I have read in lots of threads here that normal DVD now costs just 20 bucks and even branded ones are coming for 30 max. Are you sure of that price?

you'll get Unbranded DVDs starting Rs. 12. i haven't experienced any problem with Navtech media (Price Rs. 14).

Branded ones like Sony/Moserbaer will cost you > Rs. 50

And a Moserbear/Sony DVD-RW will cost you Rs. 90-100

YES! you need to be lucky if you want to get it for Rs. 250. After some extensive searching in chennai, the minimum price i was offered is Rs. 280 (Verbatim), which I settled down for.

In kerala It starts from Rs. 350 apiece.

it depends on the brand guys

an unknown brand dvd+r costs rs.20 in my city, abit better quality, 25 a piece, but brands like sony or moserbaer come for nothing less than rs.55-60

and yes dual layer dvds are exoribantly priced currentlt...better to burn 2 single layer dvds than pay a whopping 300 per piece

A Moserbear DVD+RW costs Rs.80/-

As for DVD9, I dont think you would get it anything below 250 to 275. This is simply amazing as when you go to buy DVD movies, you generally get movies on a DVD9 and costs you just 80 to 100 bucks. Now, where the hell do these guys get those disks form...

dude.. couldnt hav agreed more... v get movies on dual layered discs for 50-60 rs flat!!! god knows where these guys get the disks from .. n by the way, my frnd told me that u get DL media for 40-50 rs on some streets in mumbai... obviously unbranded.. n once u buy them, there is no way by which u can tel if they're gud o not ...
i haven't seen these discs whenever i've tried to search in b'bay though..

How is your Edgetech, since I have just bought a pack but not used it (Rs.15/each). BTW its cover says, "manufactured by Moser Bauer".

Reg. DL, I think the price is so high mainly since it is still not popular. Years back we had to buy low speed CD-Rs at hundreds of Rupees. So let's wait!
