Review of Verbatim Shiny Silver 8X DVD-R Media 50 Pack in Cake Box

After several years of buying from SuperMediaStore, I am still a happy customer. However, there is a problem, when ordering on a Friday. If you are ordering on this day, go ahead and pay for faster shipping, you will be glad you did.

The product that I purchased it exactly what I needed, exactly as advertised, and was delivered for free within 5 days. I've found the store that I've been looking for! I will definately be making future purchses here! Thanx SuperMediaStore!

I like verbatim, supermediastore is my favorite place, when buying blank dvd. I will continue to buy from them.

I really like these DVD's. Haven't had any coasters and don't expect any coasters. Great quality at a good price and throw in
free shipping you gotta be nuts not to buy these.

I always receive best deals from e-mails from supermediastore.

A great value for the money. I have been using this brand of media more and more for my projects. I have not had that many "caosters" or bad media with the Verbatim brand.

I love shopping here at Supermedia, I like to try different brands of high quality dvd media and stick to Taiyo or Verbatim.

I usually buy when they have a deal going on and this one was definitely a good buy. Have burned 15 in a row so far and no coasters. I hope they keep making the Azo dye for Verbatims as the new branded "Life Series" are made by CMC not MCC.

You can buy the Data Life Plus from online stores such as this one and the only place to get 8x, you can't find 8x anymore at stores I hope they continue to make this and retain the quality.

It seems even Verbatim are slowly declining with quality when they released the "Life Series" at stores. I hope with JVC purchasing Taiyo Yuden will keep the quality or even improve it. I am stocking up when I get a chance even thou I dont need this much right now.

First the DVD Burners ie. Plextor, BenQ, Nec are hard to find the genuine ones these days, soon the DVD media might follow (cross finger), online stores like Supermedia is the best. Please continue to carry high quality media will definitely be back for more.

SO FAR THESE ARE VERY GOOD.I'VE ONLY USED A FEW BUT EACH ONE HAS BEEN GREAT.MUCH BETTER THAN MY LAST PURCHASE OF RIDATA WHITES WHICH I HAD TO THROW OUT EVERY OTHER ONE BECAUSE IT WOULDNT RECORD.HAPPY WITH THESE. THANKS

I always shop here and no where else for my media. It is the best in quality and always in price. I would recommend to others to shop here and even supply the links.

I buy these so I can print on them with my Casio writer. I think of the couple of hundred I've used so far there has been 2 bad DVDs.

A great product at a great price... and plenty of room to write on!

The Verbatim DVD-R Data Life Shiny are top rate quality and with 50% usage without one coaster. I do not anticipate any, with this quality. Don't take a chance on saving a few bucks, go with the best and have assurance that you will have no surprises. SuperMediaStore is the leader for the best prices on the best items and truly, a one place store, for all of your needs. The only negative is, Do Not Purchase on a late Friday, since almost nothing is being done, during this time. At other times, you will be appreciative, that you have chosen, SuperMediaStore.

Received these very quickly, and in good shape. Burning great

I felt the price was about $10 too high for this product. Guess the FREE shipping was actually part of the purschase price. Can find it cheaper, but supermediastore has been faithful to me for the past 5 years, so i pay extra, sometimes.

Best dual layer media you can buy. Anyone says differently, then would like to see what beat it and how it was tested.
...
zero coasters, when burnt as booktype dvd, even my older 1st gen. dvd players will read this media, cannot same the same for the other brand names i will not mention simply to avoid offending anyone loyal to those brands.

PROS- solid media with a proven track record that has not let me down since 1997. Verbatim does not disappoint here. CONS-burn speed of 2.4x and this price did not match, was like 10$ more than market average. Like all other DVD-9 marketing ploys, this media does not support 8.5 GB of storage, the reality is you will get 7.95gb or an easier way to look at this is you can get about 4 hours (240min) of data on it. so if you are new to Dual-Layer media and wonder why you cannot fit 8.5GB on a disc, then doing a quick web search on these two keywords should help: WIKI DVD9

The DVDs work great with my older DVD burner that won't work with anything faster than 8x speed. I was just really happy to find that I could still get these disks!!!

Price was right, shipped quickly. Disks work fine so far - burned 15 without problems.
