Verbatim DVD-R 4.76GB 16X (50 Pack), Blue

Verbatim DVD with AZO technology far superior to all the bargain brands. DO NOT BUY Verbatim "Life series". Not nearly as good as Verbatim with AZO technology. I have used probably over 600 of these and coaster percentage is between 1% and 2% that is the fault of the DVD not the drive. My last order was for four containers of 50 packs. Was cheaper than two containers of the 100 packs. Order arrived for pick up at the store two or three days BEFORE estimated date. Very impressive. Again, order the Verbatim with AZO technology - NOT the "Life" or "DataLIfeplus".

I was in the market for blank dvd media, and wanted a cheaper alternative to the great Sony brand. I've filled up 15 dvds so far with no problem, and have not came across a dud disk yet. Way better than memorex in my opinion.

There are many types CDs or DVDs out there, but they all different quality. If you a professional, I suggest the Azo, just hold one on your hand and compare the weight to another type on your other hand. I have tested the Azos under hot boiling water and cold water too. I glad I was able to find the Azos here at Walmart. Easy to order on line, and a good price. I

I have no complaints verbatim is better than most I have tried

Nice Dvd's to use for recording, never had a problem.

I don't know what to say other then I can record on these dvds, cheaper to buy online then in the store is only reason I did

No need to use anything else. These are the best discs for the price by far. I burn a lot of content and I literally cant remember the last time I got a coaster from verbatim.

But found that Kodak and the brand that starts with "Im" had a failure rate of fifteen percent (one out of seven disks were coming up as bad). Now THIS brand I seem to have had only six percent of the disks have failed. Clearly quality is an issue with all of them, but this brand seems to be the best of the Walmart brands - unless you wish to pay more than TRIPLE the cost! In conclusion, you have a very cheap disk that has a very good success rate - making it one I will buy over and over again. BUY THIS BRAND. Accept the failure rate, or pay three times the cost of the 'better disks'... and you will still run into a bad one every once in awhile anyhow.

When you want just a burned copy, and youre unsure whether your DVD burner will be compatible, the -R is the way to go. Its an older format, but more widely used, and a bit less reliable overall than the +R when burning. All discs are susceptable to errors, but you may experience a few more with -R than the +R DVDs. I have not had any problems using either format over the other.

These Verbatim DVD-Rs will not burn on my Mac, PC nor LG peripheral CD/DVD burner. Memorex and Sony will, so I guess price actually matters. Thinking perhaps the first blank was defective, I tried a second, then went deep down into the stack. None would burn a thing. I'd recommend you spend more and stick with name brands.
