Hi,

I have read a lot of bad comments about the above media. I have been using this media since I bought my pioneer 105 and had no problem. I have had a few bad disks, but mainly due to software problems. e.g. using copytodvd & dvd shrink and trying to burn a film more that 4.35 gb. I also had problems with dvdxcopy express with a few films.
I have not tried ritek yet but found the above media very reliable. I am not sure why people have so many problems with this media?
