DVD+R Good

Advantages: Very reliable, come in a ase
Disadvantages: Not very cheap, slow burn speed, not printale

...case supplied is only CD-sized, so your DVD+Rs stand out against the rest of yur DVD collection on a shelf. 4) If you have a newer DVD burning drive, these will only burn at a maximum of 4x speed. These negative points aside, if you need a good quality DVD+R quick and can't wait for an internet shop to deliver, get down to WH Smith and pick up some of these little beauties - you won't be disappointed....

Review of Memorex DVD-R 4.7 GB 8x

Samsung DVD R136

Advantages: None - won't accept ANY brand of DVD RW so totally useless
Disadvantages: See above

...DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP!!! My advice would be if you have or been given one for Xmas - take it the hell back and get a refund or exchange it for a NON Samsung DVD recorder. Samsung should be prosecuted for selling what is obviously a faulty machine! Plenty of reviews online ALL saying the same thing - it will NOT accept DVD-RW. So, not fit for purpose. Samsung will probably blame the consumer, as always. Well, FOUR brands of HIGH QUALITY BRAND NAMES, cleaning the lensas suggested on some sites DOES NOT WORK! Seriously, you will regret the day you bought one of these pieces of crap! I've spent more money on finding out WHICH brand plays - as the manual is utterly useless when it says 'some brands may not work' but DOESN'T tell you which do! HELLO, are there ANY people with brain cells employed at this company???! No, poor...

Review of Samsung DVD-R 136

stable DVD-/+R!!!

Advantages: Very good brand
Disadvantages: none at the moment

...This DVD-/+R is absolutely amazing, it has never let me down! First, the This type of DVD is said to be Data/Video and it does what the description say. When i first burnt my home video on to this DVD-/+R and played it on my DVD player, i thought it wasn't going to recognize it, however it played it correctly without jumping tracks or anything!. I tried burning with my other DVD-/+R but all of them didn't recognized my home video, sadly! Personally, i would go for DVD+R for burning home videos. Burning it using data as a storage also delivers a high quality. There were no errors and each time, it recognized the disc because some 'crappy' DVD-/+R doesn't even load it on the computer, HOwever, TDK is top-notch. The burning speed for DVD is 1-4x so it's not that slow. To burn the whole Data of 4.7gb would take about 30 minutes...

Review of TDK DVD+R 4.7 GB 8x

Princo DVD-R - Blank DVD's on a budget.

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: There is a slim possibility of some of the discs being faulty

...The Princo DVD- R is a straightforward blank storage media for use in DVD writers. The discs have a 4.7GB capacity and can be written to at speeds up to 16 X. But do not forget they can only be written to once - they are not rewritable. The label side of the disc is plain, with very little written on it, leaving ample space for you to put information. The discs are supplied in basic packaging, and if you want a case for an individual disc you will have to buy the cases seperately. In my opinion these discs are very cheap, and accordingly their quality comes into question. However out of about 100 discs that I have bought only 2 have been faulty. In my view they are an excellent choice for those of you that use a lot of blank DVD's....

An Exciting Review on Blank DVD-R`s

Advantages: Store a lot of data
Disadvantages: You need a DVD-R Drive to write to them

...I am sure you are really excited about the prospect of reading a review about blank DVD-R`s, but actually blank DVD-R`s are quite exciting because of their ability to hold vast amounts of data. Not so long ago, people were able to back up all of their important data on floppy disks, then came the advent of the CD-R, a medium on which up to 700 MB of data could be stored safely and quickly. But with the arrival of such blank media so the need to store more and more data arrived, the last time I backed up my important data it took four CD-R`s to complete the job. A time consuming task changing the CD-R`s and the rising costs involved prompted me to take the next step up and buy a DVD-R drive, and of course some blank DVD-R`s to use in it. While researching both the DVD-R drive and the blank media to use in it one name was constantly...

Review of BulkPaq Orange DVD-R 4X

Tesco DVD +R 50pk

Advantages: Cheap annd Reliable
Disadvantages: Spindle casing the DVDs are packaged in not suitable for storing DVDs once opened

...This 'write once' pack of DVD +R is great value. At the moment Tesco are retailing these at £14.97 which works out to be about 30p each The pack comes in as a spindle pack with no covers. They are write once only at max speed of x8 and have a storage capacity of 4.7GB each. The +R format can be used in the following DVD machines: Technika Bush Alba Daewoo Goodmans Matsui Philips The following machines are also compatible with +R as well as -R Sony LG Liteon Sharp The hardware that only caters for -R and therefore cannot use the +R format are: Hitachi JVC Panasonic Pioneer Samsung Toshiba The spindle pack the DVDs come in is very flimsy cheap plastic so once opened the original casing is not very good to store the blank DVDs. However, this is a minor quibble considering the price they retail at...

Review of Tesco DVD+R 50Pk

Quality branded DVD-R's from TDK

Advantages: Reputable and reliable
Disadvantages: Bad colour

...I paid about £20 from Adsa for the pack of 100 TDK DVD-R's (4.7Gb, 16 x speed), which I consider to be great value for a reliable, reputable make such as TDK. I have used about half of the discs so far, mainly for films but also for backing up data, photos etc, from the PC. I have not encountered a single faulty disc, as of yet. They seem very reliable, and have a write speed of upto 16 x, although I have not been able to test this as my DVD writer only writes at a maximum 4 x. My only grumble with the discs is the colour. They are printed a metallic blue colour, with a pattern and the TDK logo on. While this is very nice to look at, it isn't very good for writing on with a black marker. Space (to write on the disc, not capacity) is limited because of this....

A Splendid 'Elizabeth R' She Is!

Advantages: Splendid turn by Glenda Jackson; brilliant scripts; historical accuracy; sumptuous costumes; compleat DVD set (Region 1).
Disadvantages: Off with your silly head!

...-see for students of Tudor or English history, for those who appreciate superb historical drama and theatre, who enjoy the English language as elegantly written and majestically spoken, and who remain fascinated by Elizabeth I and her times. Get this now, preferably on DVD. Very, very highly recommended. Ten stars of the five, if I could rate it honestly! Notes: While few elements in the series would be deemed inappropriate for little ones (there is the controversial matter of Thomas Seymour romping with young Elizabeth, Mary [of Scotland] Stuart's gory end, and a fleeting reference to an extramarital pregnancy, to name the most obvious), most of the material will go above the heads of young children anyway and would be more suitable for those twelve to thirteen years of age and older, depending on their level of intellectual precocity. The 'R...

...First of all just like to mention that for me personally Verbatim DVD's are the best QUALITY DVD's. The Verbatim 16x DVD has 4.7GB of data or 120 minutes of video can be recorded in just 5 minutes. YES JUST FIVE MINUTES, I was surprised by myself that the DVD could be recoreded so QUICKLY. the 16x discs will ensure any recording to be of the highest quality and the multiplicity compatibility of Verbatim's discs make the DVD's very ideal for sharing and Storing computer data. Great to store Home videos and Music Files on.
