Which brand dvd-r blank media should I purchase?

[SoCalMK]

I am a manager of an internet cafe and we are about to install a dvd burner. In considering what type of blank dvd-r media to buy, I have to weigh both compatiblity with a wide range of dvd players and also price. So my question is, considering the above criteria what brand should I get. I'm leaning towards the Maxell since most websites sell the 50 pack at $94.50 and I have read that they are highly compatible. But now I'm confused abou the fact that these Maxell's are unbranded. Does that make a difference? And whatever I buy, where should I buy it? By the we are installing a Pioneer A05 for burning. Could someone please help me? Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

SoCalMK Frst off id like to know where your cafe is? im in socal also and I too have an internet cafe. we have 28 systems and 2 with dvd burners(pioneer a05's). we use ritek 4x media , leda(princo)4x media, and also leda(princo) 1x media which burns well at 2x with hacked firmware for the pioneer ao5. i know princos get a bad rap but they actually arent bad at all. alot of our customers prefer the princos because they come with white tops and the disks look thicker and less likely to be scratched on top due to the white protective layer which the ritek dont. the princos have also worked on every dvd player(stand alone) our customers and i have tried. they are very reliable. people even buy them for ps2 back ups. If you are interested in buying them in bulk i can get a pretty decent hook up depending on how many you'd like to buy(both princo and ritek). email me at Syphic@pacbell.net

hey you can't ask the same question twice! you did manage to get the same answer on both occasions though, which is kinda cool! 8)

I hope I didn't break any rules by posting twice, but I just wanted to get as many responses as possible to what I consider to be a complicated issue.
