    I found some weird brands (at least for me) that use TYG02 media. I can buy it really cheap (comparing to Sony, Maxell, Samsung, Ridata...) here.
    Are ALL TYG0x media good quality, no matter what brand it is?

    I'm talking about this two brands I see here:
    AMIGO (which means "friend") http://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-46022735-midia-dvd-r-47gb-amigo-tubo-lacrado-c5...00-r-122un-_JM
    and
    HW11 http://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-45923027-50-dvd-r-8x-hw11-com-logo-idgt-tyg02-r-119-cada-_JM

    If they are all good, in any brand, I'll buy it

    That's not Taiyo Yuden media. It's just some cheap media using the TYG0x media code. You may want to try Sony, as some Sony media is true TY; look for "Made in Japan" on the packaging. Even then, it may be TY or it may be Sony's own media, which is still pretty good.

    Good to know.
    I have about 200gb of DVDR stuff laying on my HD, need to burn all that.
    Unfortunately, good media is still expensive here :/
    Thanx for the replies.
