I received 3 samples of Matrix DVD-R media from Steve from Shop4tech. It's been over a month since I request the sample and I almost forgot where it was from. There's no note with the 3 samples.
Appearance: The 3 media looks better than Princo media and similar to DupEZ media. It has a light purple die on the writing side.
Burn Speed: I backed up LOTR II and filled up the disc with 4.68G of the available space. I used a USB/firewire Pioneer A05 to burn all 3 medias. They all burned at 4x speed with USB2 and Firewire. They finished in about 16 minutes.
Viewing Quality: I played back the movies in 3 different players, Marantz DVD player, A Panasonic Portable LA5, and a Pioneer player. Both the Marantz and Pioneer players played ok. However, I was getting a lot of freezes and pulses from the Pany portable. I have played Princo, DupEZ and also Ritek medias on this Pany portable and never had any freezes or pulses.
It's a pretty inexpensive 4x media if you player is more compatible with this Matrix media. Otherwise, you probably want to spend a little more money to get the media that you already trust.

I'm still waiting for a response to the srewed up order I received. They sent me the wrong CDRs. I ordered Ritek inkjet printable 80 min disks, they sent me Unknown non printable 90 min disks.
I think they are going to be placed on my never again list, or possibly worse if they don't make things good!Hope is the trap the world sets for you every night when you go to sleep and the only reason you have to get up in the morning is the hope that this day, things will get better... But they never do, do they? -
How did you request the "Sample" was it free...???
