Excellent Value!

There isn't a whole lot you can say about a particular brand of DVD+R media. If it works and there are no unusual issues one is pretty much the same as another.



That said there are two things that will keep me buying the AmazonBasics DVDs. One is the price....the price is lower than other brands and still a similar price even when the other brands are on sale. Factor in Amazon free shipping and sales tax considerations and their price is excellent.



The other reason I like these is the shipping. The double boxing and packing ensured the media got to me safely.



As far as performance that is driven mostly by your PC hardware and burner. I have used about 30 of these so far to store general data photos video etc. and have not had any issues. I have used some other brands (Sony) where I have run into the occasional bad DVD right out of the box.



I would rate the Amazon Basic DVDs right up there with the Panasonic media which from my experience tends to have no bad DVDs in a batch.

Try these you won't be disappointed!

best DVDs that I have found

I've tried several different brands and these are the best. I've burned over 700 DVDs and no coasters. Memorex is the worst and should be avoided like the plague. Peace.More detail ...

Superior! Superior! Superior!


I have used these Verbatim brand 16X disks in both my DMR-EH50S Panasonic DVD Recorder (recording content from the television to its hard drive and then after editing the content burning it to DVD media) as well as my pc computer's NEC ND-3500AG 16X DVD burner and all I can say is how pleased I have been.



These burn very very fast at 16X and I have not had any failures using them -- absolutely no errors so far!



I have used other popular brands of 16X speed DVD media including Taiyo Yuden Philips Maxell Memorex TDK and while those also have burned very dependably (with a few exceptions) there is one capability I have noticed that the Verbatim brand possesses that those other brands do not. And that is I can squeeze more video and file content onto these Verbatim disks whereas with those other brands I cannot! There is a little more storage space on these! That has made a difference at critical moments in which I needed to fit those extra few megabytes onto the same disk.



I am on my third 25 disk spindle and undoubtedly will opt for the 100 disk spindle when the time comes to replenish my supply.



I have decided that I won't use any of those other brands until either the manufacturing quality of these changes for the worse or they stop making them altogether -- I hope neither happens.



Anyway these are as near to perfection for burning video and files onto as I have been able to find and I recommend them to you heartily!
