MAGNAVOX 16x DVD+/-R, 100-Pack

I think $15 is a good deal for 100 DVD+/-R's.

It's a gamble. You're better off waiting for a sale on Verbatim media.

I've used most of a 50 pk with NO problems on my drives. Grabbed a few 100 pks today and combined a 15 off 50 card 🙂.

I used a 100 pack early last year and had no problems burning or reading them in a settop player.

According to this site they are just okay discs and 75-90% tend to be good discs:

First disc gave error for me, second one came out fine though. I don't think I would trust them with important data like family pics,video,ect that you can't get back but fine for everything else IMO. They certainly ain't bottom of the barrel(crap wise).

I've got a $15 off $50 card as well and am tempted to do the same. Long live cheap media!

I'm thinking this has to be a price mistake though and they only meant the CD-R's to be that price. It seems I can order the CD-R's on-line but not the DVD+-R's. My coupon is only good instore anyway, so we'll see if it flies.

Thanks OP.

I walked in and there they sat with the other media with a yellow sale tag $14.99.
