PioData DVD-R Discs good?

[Speedy3D!]

I was looking to buy some DVD-R 4X discs here:

and wasn't sure if PioData (it says Pioneer OEM) was a good brand. Does anybody have any experience with them?

Thanks!

I just bought some..... only problem is I also just bought a dvd burner (new NEC model from newegg), so I have nothing to reference them to... doh

But when I start burning ill tell you if any of them are frisbees I guess, whether they scratch easily, that will be harder to tell....

gotta say on first look, from my experience with CD-R's, these things look a bit cheap...

the thing that bothers me most is the edge of the disk is quite rough, which to me usually implies cheap...

Made in Tawain....

Micro Center has 15 packs of Verbatim DataLife 4X DVD+R's for $18 if you have one near you, (eg aprox $1.20 a disc) which isn't to bad for name brand 4x +R's

UPDATE:

these disks are utter junk (PIODATA)

steer well clear!
