I FOUND IT!!!

I found a source for cheap (as in inexpensive) dependable DVD-R discs. The brand is called Primedisc, and I found them from shop4tech.com. I have done some extensive testing on these discs using `Smartripper 2.4' to rip the VOB file, then using Ifoedit, and finally Prassi 2.0 for my movies using both the 4.7GB & 9.4GB DD discs. I now have a great collection of movies w/o having to spend a fortune as opposed to buying the overpriced Apple Media Discs. You can get a 25pack of primedisc dvd-r discs for $1.36 each disc!!! 8)
