  1. hi, i am looking for dvd disk dual layer 8.5gb in capacity and single sided.

    can anyone look for a reasonable price from other places? cause what i found is cruel.

    i need about 30000 of those disks (i use them myself, i know sounds crazy. but i am for sure do use that many). well, if anyone is in that business, can as well make me a offer.

    That's the way it is for now.

    you probably better off contacting a DVD-pressing factory for that, assume you're doing legal stuff.

    What are you talking? No one would ever do anything illegal with a DVD burner.

    Hallelujah !!

    I know I pay 6 USD per DL disc just to back up more data to one disc than to put the same amount of data on 2-4.7GB discs that cost 40 cents each.

    Or wait another 6 months to a year for the price to come down and the technology to mature in term of media & burner quality.

    It kinda hurts your wallet when you coaster a few of these babies

    Even if prices fall to the current going rate for single-layer media, that's gonna be well over $10,000 even for the cheap CMC-crap media... and at 2.4X burn rate, you'd have to burn discs non-stop, 24/7, for over 520 days to go through that many discs.

    tintytinyme, if you're really going through that many discs, you really should contact a pressing plant to do your duplicating. It'd probably end up being a heck of a lot cheaper.

    where are you finding them for this price? even on ebay seems like they're going for no less than 8 bucks a pop.

    You're welcome. I think they are cheaper at Newegg also. I don't think the Meritline price of 30 -10 includes the shipping, does it ?

  13. Mertline does have the rebate but want 33 dollars for it!

    Wonder if Walmart is included?

    Wish they would make a DVD RW DL. Either plus-minus.

    I hate to sound like a stuck record, but if you go to Newegg you can view the rebate as long as you have a program that can read PDF files and check it out. I doubt if the rebate forms are good at places other than those that are hosting the forms.
    At least that's the way it is for the Riteks when they have the rebate at Newegg.

    Are you using them for audio, by any chance? I ask because most of your posts are in the audio forum.

    If so, I'm wondering why you would need dual-layer for audio.

    thanks tom. i tried to find them... i think they're either all out or no longer selling that particular 3pack. the only DL Verbatim I could find was a multi-pack...

    What exactly do the words "3 pack" mean if not multi-pack?

    a 3 pack is 3 of the same item... a multi pack is a number of DIFFERENT items. seems like an obvious distinction.

    thanks for the link though...

    I just couldn't understand how if you went to Newegg and looked up Verbatim you wouldn't have seen them.


    I can't even find anything at Newegg in the Verbatim section that even says multi-pack for any DL media.

    There is only the solution kit that has one DL and 8 +R and 1+ RW and the 3-pack that he linked to.

    the only DL Verbatim I could find was a multi-pack.
    The link you give is to the exact same 3-pack,not multi-pack.



    Can you give me the link to the other where you see a Verbatim "multi-pack" at Newegg cause it might be something i'd like to look at. What's in it ? Maybe i'm missing it.

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Dictionary.com will have to be notified about this

    multi-
    pref.
    Many; much; multiple: multicolored.

    More than one: multiparous.
    More than two: multilateral.
