    I found these on eBay. 10 pc for $26.89 + $4.90 S&H Any good, or a scam (counterfeit)?
    Also, would these likely play in a standalone BD Player?

    Just found a 50pk spindle on Amazon for $129.89 w/ free shipping. Has good reviews.

    It's only money, so I just ordered a pack based on the very positive reviews on Amazon. I'll test them out, and try to remember to put a review on here.

    Verbatim is the only BD-R DL brand we would recommend.

    My experience is that ALL BD players have at least minor issues when playing BD-R DL media. And I ONLY have used Verbatim, which should be the best. You can experience things like menus not loading and playback glitches. However, if you reload the exact same disc when you have problems, the 2nd or 3rd time you reload it, it may play without any issues. The problems are not big and fairly random but when they happen, they are annoying.

    The 10 pk price seems absurdly low to me, but I have no way to check it. You can't even buy a 10 pk in the USA of Verbatim BD-R DL discs for twice that price. If you have problems. use ImgBurn or some other tool to post the media code.

    These are the blanks I ordered thru Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-Blu-ray-Disc-pcs-Spindle/dp/B0056DV0L4/ref=sr_1_2?s=ele...rbatim+BD-R+DL It'll be at least a few weeks before I get them, as they're being shipped from Japan.

    At $2.60 a disc, they seem to be a steal considering they are Verbatim.

    Blu-ray isn't as picky as DVD.
    I need to publish my Blu-ray rankings soon.
    Verbatim is best, yes, but there's actually several decent discs for BD-R.

    Go figure.
