    They won't sell you the ones at the store with the movies on them?

    I'd ask to talk to the manager if I were you.

    these discs would be useless to u ne way as they are printed and not burned, and usually dual layered

    You would not be able to burn on them, they are dual layered.

    The discs you see in the "movie store" are MANUFACTURED for that specific movie in a pressing plant.

    For further info, look into the difference between "duplication" and "replication."

    You would not be able to burn on them, they are dual layered.
    Only way you're burning them is with an open flame - period.

    Since we seem to be posting in redundancy mode...I will chime in as the sixth person to say..."No...you can't since they are pressed/stamped and you probably wouldn't want to spend 6 figures to purchase a machine that could utilize them"
    No, I'm from Iowa. I only work in outer space.

    Six figures won't cut it - more like a couple million
