4 out of 5 stars Quality.......2007-02-10

As good or better than any DVD+Rs that I have tried. And I have tried them all. None are perfect, so I gave the Memorex 4 stars.

The item I purchased came on time and it was exactly what I had ordered!

5 out of 5 stars Why Pay More!?.......2006-07-26

This DVD burning isn't as cut and dried as some would like you to believe. However, just because you get a bad burn doesn't mean it is the discs. There is a whole bunch of stuff going on in your computer that can affect the burn.

I have a Dell 1.2 ghz, with a Lite-On 8x drive, running Nero 6 OEM. Pretty generic, but these Memorex 8x and now 16x discs burn just fine. In fact, I have burnt about 600-800 of these discs and have had very few fall-outs. Not enough to justify buying the "better" quality discs.

Now for the caveat: I did have one spate of problems, caused by a not so well behaved antivirus program. I tossed out the antivirus program and went over to Avast!(it's free, check with Microsoft). Problem solved even though I run Winamp and a logging environmental sampling program while burning discs.

We burn hundreds of discs for a hospital lecture series. They are being played on all sorts of equipment, including some pretty banged up junk. So far I have not received one complaint about the discs only suggestions about the content.

Before you spend big bucks on some "better" disc, pop up your task manager in XP and see if there is some runaway task that needs some discipline. Also, if you must run "better" discs then do a surface test in Nero. I bet the "better" disc will look very close to failure if the Memorex failed.

1 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE DVD+R!.......2006-06-19

The Memorex DVD+R has got to be one of the worst dvd-r's out in the market. Not only is the rate of a successful DVD burn very low (movies, games, etc.), it also has a horrible shelf life that lasts for about four months. From what I hear from other members, Memorex uses a low-quality dye, and is explicitly evident in the red colored deterioration of the dye that can be seen on the top layer of the disk. All my DVD+R's are actually stained RED for some reason?!? Overall, go with verbatim or heck, even COMPUSA dvd's will be more suffice than this garbage.

Would you play Russian Roulette? No, of course not. Then why would you do so with your media?? That's what you'll be doing if you waste your money on this "media". The only worse "media" is hocked under the linkyo label.

1 out of 5 stars Worthless.......2006-08-25

The discs simply do not work. I have used them before with no problems, and I bought two of these packs, 100 discs total, and they were all bad. The technical support was a joke, who told me that since "you don't know what you're doing" they would send me to customer relations. I was on the phone with customer relations for just under a hour, talking to someone with the education level below 5th grade.

The 'customer relations' person talked to me sarcastically, put me on hold three times for over 10 minutes each time, and kept repeating over and over what the problem was. Eventually he told to send in all the discs, proofs of purchases that simply did not exist, and all of these was at my own cost, since they would not reimburse shipping. The representative kept inferring that I would never take him up on his offer. I wonder if anyone ever has. After that absolute horrific experience that simply cannot be boiled down into a simply paragraph, I will absolutely never buy anything that says Memorex on it for my entire life.

These DVD's are really good... I have yet to have any problems...

1 out of 5 stars Worthless.......2006-07-06

I've had two sets of Memorex DVD-R discs and no matter what they last a year at best, burned or not. Save yourself alot of headaches and spend an extra $5 dollars on another brand that actually works.

2 out of 5 stars Worst Discs Ever.......2006-06-05

I've burned almost 100 Memorex 8X discs in four different PC DVD Burners. Roughly 1/4 errored during the burn. Of those that burned, over 1/2 pixelate and lock up when played on PC or home DVD player. My firmware is up to date and I haven't had this much trouble with any other DVD-R except for Staples brand. I give them 2-stars since they do work well in my home theater DVD Burners but only in Standard Play mode and at 1X burn speed. In EP or faster burn modes, they pixelate.

1 out of 5 stars Poor quality.......2006-04-20

I found that these DVD-Rs did not work well in my system, were unreliable and slow. I cannot recommend them.
