Fuji Film DVD-R @ Best Buy

[MetaPhaze]

Best Buy has a 50 Pack of Fuji Film DVD-R for 79.99 after instant rebate. Pretty decent deal for brick and mortar if you ask me. Seems like these are selling out fast so go check it out yourself!

if they are made in japan they are Tayo Yuden - Go for it.
if they are made in taiwan - be careful.

Fuji changed vendors

What speed are the discs?

[MetaPhaze]

I don't know much about the disc manufacturers. I know they said made in Taiwan They are only 2x I can't seem to find 4x DVD-R in my local area unless I buy a 10 pack of Fuji's at like 40 bucks.

I just bought a 50 pack, they are re-badged Ritek G03s, so it's still not a bad price.

Oh and for CD-R I bought Fuji Film they are great it seems. 12.99$ out the door for 50 pack after garbage mail in rebate 4.99$. I know you can get them cheaper but they are Fuji Film CD-R's made in Japan so they are trust worthy discs. Also from Best Buy

How do you know they are Ritek's? I can't seem to find that anywhere on the packaging or the DVD-R

@MetaPhaze: Every DVD+/-R/RW will have a manufacturer's ID code stamped onto them. You will need a program like DVDInfo to read the code.

Office Depot also has 15 packs of DVD+R, 26.94, buy 2 get 1 free, so 54 bucks, 45 +Rs. Works out to a buck 20, + tax.
The -Rs above are a buck 60 + tax. That's not cheap, is it?

BTW, they're Philips disks, if that matters.

Fuji is not the best, and its's expensive. That's a double-screw.

The 50 pack of Fuji DVD-Rs that I got from Best Buy cost me $1.37 each after tax vs. $1.42 mail order (both Ritek G03). Ritek might not be TDK or Maxell in terms of quality but they are defintely B+ or A- grad media. Of course, YMMV since Fuji does rebadge media and sell it under their name but it looks like Ritek does their 1X/2X media and Taiyo Yuden makes their 4X media. Neither is shabby!

Until I see CMC or Princo making Fuji media, I'll still give their brand the benefit of the doubt when shopping locally 8)
