The link works for you because you have the cookie/login on your system that is associated with it. It doesn't appear that the search feature is working. I just clicked the order my item number and put it in.

I don't plan on buying them but I just thought I'd let interested parties know how to find them.

The last time I ordered CDR's from Office Max online, they substituted a higher speed and since it wasn't the right UPC, I was denied a rebate. I think I will go buy at the B&M if I do it again.

Yeah, I saw the cookie thing. The second link should work for everyone, right?

*edit* Maybe not, my internet is going extremly slow right now, kinda screwing me up

I have them, they are excellent. No problem whatsoever. Burned them at 52x with lite-on. I'm talking about the Khypermedia...

Not bad. I received the 200 pack today and the discs are 80 minute. I burned a full disc as a test at 52x and Nero CD Speed/scandisc (surface and file scans) shows no errors. I like these discs because the tops are unprinted. It makes the discs more fragile, but that only means I need to remember to put the discs back in the jewel cases.

I wouldn't use this cheap media for anything important, but it's handy to have 200 disposable discs available. It took me 9 months to burn through the 200 disposable discs from CC.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm rolling the dice -- but I'm keeping copies of the original sales flyer just in case.

Are there any PC test programs besides Plextor's Q-Check that can report C1 errors? Nero CD-DVD Speed won't let me select "Report C1 errors" on my Pioneer DVR-105 or LiteOn LTR-52327 burners. When I worked at a CD replication plant we had all kinds of dedicated testing analyzers that can report far more info on disc quality than the *toy utilities* available on the PC. ;) I'm still heavily biased for and against certain brands based on how awesome or horrible the brands tested in those analyzers (Kodak is unbelievably bad, blue AZO media with a good reflective layer is amazingly good... very, very low BLER rates).

I tested one of the 200 pack of Khypermedia "Value discs" burned at 48x (full disc) and I get a perfect C2 score in Nero CD-DVD Speed: Total: 0, Minimum: 0, Maximum: 0, Average: 0.00. When I get some fingerprints or scratches on it, it won't be perfect anymore. :p I tested a scratched up disc and it scores very bad as expected, I just wanted to make sure C2 errors were being reported since the first disc came out perfect. This discs I received are unprinted tops, silver/yellow. I have no idea who manufactured it since the disc info is blank. All 200 I received look to be the same 80 minute discs.

Sorry, if this is not the relevant forum to ask this question.
Since the box has only one UPC code printed on it, how can one avail two rebates when both rebates require 'original' UPC symbol and 'oroginal' receipt?

if you stay logged in , just hit the edit button, instead of posting again. regarding the upc...send the copy to omax...I personally returned the pack even though I burnt 4 cds.I noticed some flaking and dust on the unused discs..not good. Plus I've been burned by omax rebates before....evetually I got the money..but the CS sucked.

If you have a Lite-On (as well as most Sony/Lite-Ons), or certain recent Sanyo burners, then you can use "CDDoctor" (for Win32/ASPI), or "WSES" (for DOS - AFAIK there is no Windows version yet).

Sanyo also sells a very expensive testing program, it may also be called "CD Doctor", but the program I'm talking about is free, and originally written by someone in Japan, but there are Englsh-translated versions on the internet.

That being said, I recently decided that Nero's CDSpeed tester is probably better. Although it cannot report C1 errors, it will show a dip in the transfer-rate graph if the drive's firmware has to re-read something. CDDoctor will not show that, although it will show C1 errors. Actually, running both utils probably isn't a bad idea. Both will of course report C2 errors on a Lite-On drive.

Thank you for that "professional" confirmation on azo. It matches what I've found in my experience as well. I actually think that those are the best media out there, the Mitsubishi azo discs, in terms of compatibility/longevity/quality. I'm surprised that Kodak's tested so bad, but I did have some issues with their "InfoGuard Silver" media.
