This is for the 3/7 - 3/13 ad.

Does anyone know who manufactures these for Maxell?

The +R are RICOHJPRN01 and the -R are MXL RG02.

The -R was superb (one of the finest), and the +R are very good as well. I would certainly pick up a few of the -R's.

Futureshop in Canada has a sale too, same maxell discs but 5 packs for $7.99 Canadian. Works out cheaper

Cheers.

Thanks for the tip

I was looking for some maxell dvd-r's, they are supposed to be as good as you can get.

Maxell makes their own dvd-r's. According to this site, they have used ritek g03's, but that was not for x4 media.

I have seen warnings about getting fake maxell's from on line places, but I would thing buying from a big store like Walgreens is safe.

BTW, futureshop does not ship to the US, according to their website, so the futureshop offer only helps you guys north of the border.

I went to the closest Walgreens at lunch today, and they had NO Maxell 10 packs, either of +R or -R. (Sale is 10 pack for $15)

Got a rain check for 3-10 packs.

But, they did have 3 packs, and those were made in Taiwan.
I hope the 10 packs are made in Japan.
Off topic, but have any of you guys seen Maxell DVD-R's made in Taiwan?

I went to my local Walgreens. The 10 packs were all made in Taiwan. EXCEPT!- there was one box that was 2.4X speed DVD-R and not 4X... This one said made in Japan. Going to buy it right now! Will post disc info later!
