What is the best DL media for Pioneer 1810 and DVR-710 drives ?

[MacPCConsultants]

Fry's sells Memorex, TDK, Sony, HP, & GQ DL media, all +R. Memorex is the least expensive at $25 for 25 blanks, but it seems to get WRITE ERRORS.

What's the best media for these drives ?

[Eyedoctor2]

Verbatim. Period.

Are you certain ? Ha ha. J/K

Where is the best place to purchase Verbatim DL +R ?

[budz]

Best Buy when it's on sale or order online from Newegg or Rima.com. I don't buy DL media since it's still expensive.

Can anyone explain WHY Verbatim is the best ? Is it just fewer errors/coasters ? Longer shelf life ?

It's made better.

and they use better dye.

my pioneer 111 totally refused to recognize verbatim dvd+r dl's.

You're talking DVD-R DL. We're talking DVD+R DL.
You also fail to mention the firmware in use, and whether the -R DL were supported by it.
