Did I spend too much?

This should keep me going for about a year. I've only used DL media once before, and I'll most likely use them for something that HAS to have full quality

Sounds pretty much in the ballpark for me. I'm sure somebody could squeeze a few bucks off here and there, but when you divide it among the number of items you purchased, we're talking less than a dime a disc for (quality) media -- and who wants to burn precious stuff to disc only to have the horrible sinking feeling six month from now when your disc comes up as unreadable in the drive?

So all things considered, that looks like good value to me.

That's the exact order I put in from Rima.com two days ago. As far as whether you spent too much or not...... you could shave a buck or so or find some free shipping offers from places like Supermediastore or maybe Meritline, but Rima is generally quicker with less expensive standard shipping for the exact same products. You did well.
