    use Taiyo Yuden, they are not even that much more if you get 8x burn speed.

    In my 5 years of this hobby, that is my conclusion.

    Yeah, it's just an issue of whether you want white coasters or silver coasters.

    However, if your looking to buy reliable DVD-R discs, go with either Verbatim of (as victoriabears suggested) Taiyo Yuden.

    Coaster
    An authored disc that won't play, either due to improper authoring, poor media quality, or write error. The name is derived from the disc's uselessness as a DVD/VCD, may as well be used to set drinks on.

    Quoted For Truth. It's amazing that anyone still buys them. Even laymen would've caught on by now.

    I've had zero coasters with Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim in several hundred burns and with several different burners. That's more than luck.
