    Can't go wrong with Verbatim. I use that, and I've never had a problem.

    Does'nt work with Prassi properly. Comes up
    with verify errors and when looking at disc
    underneath surface looks like it has'nt been
    written. Nero successfully works when buring
    with verify on x 1 speed, but will not play on
    PS2.
    Burning as a Dvd works fine though... weird...
    A hit & miss media...

    Cost:
    About $2.00 - $3.00 a disc, lower price in bulk.
    Swap meets love to sell this media..
    BUYER BEWARE!
