    Well, fair enough.

    I haven't used Datawrite disks in years, but I can tell you that when I did use them, they were very shoddily made. They had really rough edges and the label side had a nasty habit of flaking off. I don't think there's a single one of those disks that still works.

    But, manufacturers do pull their socks up occasionally, so who knows?

    ahhhhh, I had some yellow ones (forgets the name properly) but they WERE c*ap. I assure you the titaniums are the mutts nuts as far as im concerned. I certainly think that blank dvd media has come on a LONG way since its infancy :D

    Unfortunately it's who manufactured the disk that is crucial, not the name on the label (they're generally not the same).
