Is it live or Memorex? See for yourself~

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various recordings from the 60's and 70's. Sometimes as a person that has worked in electronic stores my thoughts are requested on recording equipment and electronics.

Memorex 16X DVD-R (100-Pack Spindle)

It is important since DVD recorders will often not read a specific blank even though it is not defective that you are aware of the optimum blank for it. Many of the DVD Recorders/Burners will give you the preferred brands and even the maximum speed to burn.

Please don't think because you can use 16X speed it is the most optimum. If you look at the percentage of errors in DVD and CD recording the ultra fast speeds are more likely to result in errors.

fine DVD-R discs with just a note or two about them...

The DVD-R discs are compact and easy to store. While the discs are still blank, store them in the circular case on the spindle that they came in. After your burn data onto them, I would recommend storing them in slim jewel cases instead of paper sleeves. It's just better protection for your DVD-Rs that have data stored on them. Don't store these discs, burnt or blank, in rooms that become very hot; this causes damage to any brand of this type of disc and you could lose data over time.

There are two caveats that many other people note about any brand of this product: when you are burning the data onto the blank disc, don't be surprised if you see that the data is burning  more

Packaged Terribly

No question Amozon.com has these dvd's for the cheapest price around. But if you plan to buy 300 or more be ready to recieve some broken dvd's and cases. the price is the only reason i buy them from amazon.com they really need to do a better job at packaging these disc for shipment.
