Wed Feb 27 2008To all... On international standards, DVD-Rs has the highest rate. There are more DVD players compatible with them then DVD+Rs. Also, Check your specs on both your DVD burner and Player for media capability and compatibility. I highly recommend using DVDFab Beta for all your ripping, and DVD Shrink (both free download)for all your size refine (the more you refine, the worst the quality; buy DVD DL Dual Layer with 8.5GB for movies). However, you can still rip & burn movies using a 4.7gb disc, but it will probably be just the main movie(something under 4.5GB). One more thing, with burning your DVDs no matter what burner your using, always burn at the lowest speed (yeah, it takes longer; but better quality). Lastly, it doesn't matter what media you get, you will have casualties (coaster, at lease 1%). Hopes this helps people... Lynx

Mon Jun 19 2006I've used hundreds of the DVD-R disks and never had a single one go bad. I use Ulead to creat an ISO file of my photos and never had any problem with then playing on my computer or my DVD players

Fri May 19 2006When I was burning them, I though everything was OK. Later I found out half of them were unreadable. Couldn't recover them. Junk. P.S. Used LiteOn and NEC dvd-burners.

Fri Mar 17 2006I bought 2 spindles of 40 DVD-R from Staples. They burn fine, but they can only be read on the computer they burned on, regardless of what format is used. I wasted more than half a spindle making home video dvds for family and friends, and none of them work for them. I took the unopened spindle back to Staples, and they told me they get that complaint a lot. Yes, I did finalize them. I did the same with the Teon discs as I always have with other disc brands that seem to work perfectly.

Thu Mar 16 2006I must have burned at lest 100 Teon DVD-Rs. None have failed yet. Gaucho -- Did you finalize the disks before giveing them away? I have had no problems with DVDs I've made for use by others.

Wed Feb 09 2005I have tried them all... It all boils down to compatibility issues, the burner vs the type of media. I am presently using a Memorex 8X burner with Teon 8X DVD-R blanks. I've had about 2 out of a hundred that became coasters... the rest are perfect copies!

Wed Dec 08 2004I bought the 20 pack of Teorn DVD+r 8x they say RW on them. They were only $4 and so far the first three i'v used have errors before it get to 15% burned. They are the only DVDs that i'v used that my DVD RW dl drive can't burn.

Mon Dec 06 2004Used 20 of these and they work great. Had some software issues at first, but got that figured out and now these never fail to burn right.

Mon Dec 06 2004I bought the DVD-R 40 pack at Staples over the Thanksgiving break. Total cost after rebate $3.00. Only burned 5 disc so far but no errors. They only burn at 2X speed on my 4X burner but at 8 cents per disc how can you go wrong? They're on sale again at Staples 20 for $5. I'll pick up another 40.

Sun Nov 28 2004Hi. We bought some of these DVDR's over this thanksgiving break and we started burning immediately. We have some multimedia packages to deliver and we had little problems. 2 had errors. This was a good buy since we paid $20 for a 50pk. www.virtren.com web development for all

Fri Oct 22 2004Bought 20 pack of dvd+r they are crap. Don't waste your time or money

Mon Jun 28 2004Not bad if you buy them for $5 for 20-pack (after rebate at Staples). No errors writing to them (DVD+R) but very bad on playing - not all players see them.

Sat May 29 2004I had a major production of 65 DVD's to fullfill a delivery order. I bought the TEON DVD-R at Staples. Tried the first twenty pack and found tem to be flawless. So, I immediately went back to Staples and bought them out. I had excellent results using the TEON DVD-R disc. And what a deal at $14.94 per twenty pack. I went back to Staples one week later and the price jumped to $39.97 per twenty pack. Too bad, as I would have bought them out again at the $14.94 price.

Wed May 26 2004I recently purchased these discs at Staples, they are crap, out of 20, 6 errored out, with visible spots on the disc when errored thru Nero. Some errored rather fast, others near the end. My opinion, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY...
