    Just got a pack of these in. They burned at 4x with no problems on my Sony DRU500 with firmware 2.0f. Burned a 4.2 gig movie. Didn't see any problems with artifacting or stuttering. Here's the DVDInfo.

    For $1.65 each with a logo'd top, I have no complaints. Anyone else try these?

    They were from allmediaoutlet. 165 per 100 and free shipping. Anyone else find the logo'd G04s anywhere besides allmediaoutlet? Funny thing is the logo'd ones are 5 cents cheaper per disk than the non-logo'd.

  4. Why would you want "logo'd" ones when you can have plain topped discs for a similar amount of money?

  5. Yep, I got the same ones and have burned half a dozen in my DRU-500AX. They only burn at 2x, but I'm using the original firmware. I like them muchly, even at 2x, and the price is right.

    And I prefer branded, though hate the garish orange on these disks! (Preference for branded is a result of paranoia inspired by these forms and I just think they look a little nicer. Well, except when they're garish orange!)

    The branded Ditall BeAll's (2x) I was using looked a little nicer, but I sometimes had problems with macro-blocking that disappeared when I used the Riteks, so now I'm Ritek all the way.
