A great product that burned well, and hopefully will keep well, but only time will tell. I printed on these with my Epson R260 printer, a 6 color Claria Hi-def ink system, and was impressed with the results. I was skeptical that the ink would hold-up on this non-paper surface, but it dried quickly, looked sharp [depending on your image & adjustments] and is now fairly scratch resistant. Doing some fingernail scratch testing [from recently trimmed nails], the color held-up well to normal pressure, only seeing evidence of those scrapes in certain angles in the light. Only under heavy pressure where I had to 'dig-in', did the color layer push off, but left the primary support of the white layer intact. The white support layer indented somewhat under further heavy scratching, and did not give way easily. It was only in this weakened area that I could finally get down to the plastic with further pressure. The same pressure on the white layer in areas that were not weakened by previous scratching did not scratch off to the plastic. My fingernails didn't have an affect on the data side of the DVD. Though scratching the data side on some surfaces, resulted in small 'wear' scratches as CDs and DVDs do, but it didn't affect the way my computer read the data. Overall the DVD construction seems to be durable against normal handling and some mishandling and I hope the DataLifePlus will continue to do it's job in the future.
