Which company's Blank DVD is best ????

[..:: Free Radical ::..]

Looks like this thread has gone bonkers.
How bout a new thread mods? where we post our Burn graphs using Nero Info tool or Kprobe. We need to have some standards like price : performance for comparisons as in cdfreaks or else this is just a free for all opinion poll without any solid justification.

whats the price of dual layer dvd......

and how can i know whether my sony dvd writer can write dual layer dvd or not...

i know it can read as i used digit dvds

Dual Layer DVD's cost Rs.285/- each but there might be other non-branded stuff cheaper but don't expect anything less than Rs.200/- each.

Guys, I am getting 50's pack of VERBATIM 4.7 GB DVD+R for £20...comes approximately at Rs. 34 per DVD. Do you think it's too costly ?

Actually there is little chance of getting VERBATIM in India so should I get this? Kindly suggest.

Yeah i believe its fine, Verbatim media have pretty nice quality!! Somebody previously mentioned that 16X Sony DVD is around 35buck, assuming thats true your deal sounds good, go for it.

hehehehe...10 years ago CD-Writesrs used to cost thousands of bucks..I guess around 20K or even more..only a Politician or a Crickter could have afforded a DVD-Writer that much time ago...And I have a doubt whether even DVDs were available at that time ..I cant say as I was nt involved in computers that much ago...Any comments guys...

Abt topic..I have been using Mosarbaer CDS for some years..and now that the DVD age has finally arrived with band I have still shown faith in my fav brand..Apart from mosarbaer I hv also tried MASTER(small name) DVDs and even they have never failed me.
