Everyone should save their money... Pay a little more now for better discs and you will save in the long run !!!

WRONG!!!!!!!!! For single layer that is the case but for D/L even the spindles (Verbatim label of course) are all authentic MKM001 or MKM003 that are made in Singapore. You get a much better deal on the spindles than you do on the jewel cases. SVP has the 10 pack of D/L Verbs for 16 pounds including VAT.

I dont have any vertabrims, but the TDK discs work perfectly. For $25 for a pack of 5 ya cant beat it lol
As mentioned by senator even in AUD you are getting hosed at those prices. You can get Verbatim for the same price or less if you look around a bit.

I get Verbatium DVD-R DLs 20 for 50 usd, good deal? I like Verbatim every disc I have burnt has worked, also verbatim is my favorite word (I crindge everytime someone says word-for-word).
Depends on where you live (which country) and if you mean D/L Verbatim DVD+R or D/L Verbatim DVD-R. D/L DVD-R are a rip-off and don't really get along with the 360 drives.

Where else besides USA do they have USD? Peruto Rico? I live in Minnesota, USA... http://www.bestbuy.c...d=1134697746286
Like I said every disc I have burnt with this media has worked for my 360... I am more concerned with the price I get at Best Buy compared to other stores.
Well you can get them for quite a bit less at newegg on a regular basis. $42 shipped (or quite a bit less if there is a special going) on 20 packs of D/L discs.

well playo dvd+r dl disks may be cheap crap to some people.but i for one love them i have two modded 360s one with sammy ms25 and the other with the lg 47dh drive and both read playos fine never burnt a coaster.and a few of my buds have 360s with lg and sammy drives and they all use playo and have had no problems but go with what you think will work best for you
Once again though do you happen to have any error rate scans to give us an idea of longevity studies on these discs. I guess it's just me but IMHO I could care less if I had a working disc on 1,000 different machines if I had pretty good indications that it was going to become unreadable after less than a year.
