Philips 8x Dvd-R - any good?

[godbeer]

Hey guys,

I purchased a couple of 25 - packs of Philips 8x dvd-r discs at Circuit City ($19.99 after rebates) - Just wondering it anyone else had tried these and if they are any good? I searched for these in the Media list and on the web, but couldn't find much info.

Also, I've always used 4x discs - I haven't used 8x discs because they were more expensive and I've read that they are more prone to errors. However, since the price is now coming down to about the same as 4x discs, I'm considering switching to 8x. As long as they burn and verify without incident (usind Decrypter) are they ok?

Thanks for any info,

Roy

Thanks, I'm probably going to return them. I can get better 8x discs online for about the same price anyway, without having to deal with the rebate hassle.
