    I have to ask --- why are they selling these off at silly prices?

    Is there a problem with the media?

    DSG decided about 6 months ago to only stock DVD+ media in future and has been getting rid of the minus variety at ridiculous prices ever since in batches. There have been numerous threads on here to that effect.
    There is definitely nothing wrong with the media, just that minus originated in Japan and plus in Europe ( a Philips idea :rolleyes2 )


    The 97p price tag means that it is an end of line ( a Closeout, in US terminology).

    Majority of Companies have now decided to use + media only now.
    Just like when they were deciding between VHS and Betamax for the Videos
