Verbatim DVD+R on sale at Best Buy

[MisterE]

Greetings, all. It's not the greatest deal in the world, but Best Buy has their Verbatim DVD+R (and probably DVD-R) media on sale for $12.99+tax for a 50-piece spindle. I needed blank media and that is a pretty good price for a local purchase.

Also, my local Best Buy (Huntsville, AL) has their TDK DVD media on closeout. The price on the shelf tag was around $5.96 for a 50-piece spindle of TDK DVD+R or Lightscribe media (Lightscribe is a 20 or 30 pack). Alas, the shelf is bare here in Huntsville.

The Verbatim 50-pack DVD+R I got from OM a few weeks ago was MCC and is generally considered one of the better, if not best, media codes.

The Verbatims I picked up this week were Made in Taiwan, a good sign, yes ?

Any good deals on DL media?

Not too shabby 0.80 cents a disk.

If it ain't Verbatim DL, don't even considering purchasing it, regardless of price. Verbatim DVD+R DL are the only DLs that won't make you tear your hair out. For the 2.4-6X verbatim DLs, prefer the made-in-Singapore discs (though even the made-in-India discs aren't THAT bad).

I went into more detail in this post, but Yes, all Verbatim DVDs are considered top quality (second possibly only to Taiyo Yuden).

Highly recommended for any CD/DVD related questions (not only about media) is videohelp.com. Fair warning...do a search for your question before posting. The regulars there are very knowledgeable, but a bit testy with questions that have been previously posted and answered (some years ago).

Just picked up a set.

These are quality DVD+R's, and some of the only kind that will work for Wiikey backups.

EDIT: Stopped by OM this afternoon and picked up the +R 100 pack. They were made in Taiwan. The -R 100 packs were made in India but the -R 50 packs were made in Taiwan.
