FUJIFILM DVD-R @ BEST BUY : Not advertised at the website...

[Pilot_Xphile]

I went today to my local store of Best Buy. This is what I found on FUJIFILM and is not advertised at their website:

DVD-R
- 50 pack spindle 2.4X : 99.99 - $40 rebate = 59.99 >>> 1.19 each
- 10 pack with jewel cases 2.4X: 24.99 - $10 rebate = 14.99 >>> 1.49 each

DVD-RW:
- 5 pack with jewel cases: 16.79 - $3 rebate = 13.79 >>> 2.75 each

I bought the 5 pack of DVD-RW and they're made in Singapore. Tomorrow I'll come back for the 50 pack spindle. :P

DVD-R is only 2x, not 2.4x.
And the store I saw had 4x in the cases.
1x/2x (depends on firmware) in the spindle.

The sale is blanket: 40% off all blank Fuji media. CD too.

Over a year ago I was in a bind. I ran out of DVD-R discs and nedded just one. After paying nearly $10 for a single Fuji DVD-R at Radio Shack I found out that it was crap. It skipped regularly towards the end.

Maybe Fuji has improved the quality of thier discs. Maybe the one I purchased was a fluke. However, I would stay away from them when you can get TDKs at Best Buy for just a little more.
