Hot? Dual Layer Media ~ 4 bucks each

[toekramp]

searched on 'dual' didn't see anything, haven't been frequenting hot deals too often so hopefully this isnt' a repost.

It's after a $6MIR, but that still seems hot to me.

Ehh, even $4 a disc cannot compare with single layer, where even brand names are down to $10 for a spindle of 50.

The only thing the DL is good for is 100% backups of DVDs, and with the kind of compression technology we have nowadays, just squeeze them unto single layer DVDs. No way you can tell the difference on a regular TV. So I say use single layer DVD+Rs to archive those films you want (especially older ones), and wait around for next generation media (blu-ray or HD-DVD) movies to spend your hard earned bucks on.

Yup, good deal if you need it. Just hope at that price you don't need it.

Seems like a good deal.
Nice to be able to back up a system with one DVD.

When are prices on these expected to come down?

Bought myself a BenQ DL - but the media is just soo expensive.... i want it mainly for large backups, and home videos......
