Just went to Harvey Norman earlier today, Was after some DVDs. Found these just in front of the the checkout in the Nunawadding store in Melbourne. They were selling some Verbatim ones(Non-Printable 50 Pack for $16, Printable $18- I remember this deal was posted not very long ago..i think…EDIT: Found it! - http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/9528). They must be clearing out on all their non-popular DVD media.
AFIK these LG ones are only available in DVD-R, tried to look for some +R's as those are the ones i always have been using but had no luck. Was initially going to get the $16 Verbatim ones(Which also are available as DVD-R only-Found DVD+R's but they were $29.95 or something) then saw these and was like, ok. i'd prefer printable and its cheaper by a whole DOLLAR, so why not? also didnt mind trying another brand i hadn't tried before seeing as i was making the lifelong switch to -R media!
Have no clue about the reliability of LG's DVDs but i assume most if not all name brand media should at least perform adequately(Many DVDs are supposedly manufactured in the same factories, just re-branded to different companies- Don't quote me on this though :P). Will be reading up on it later if i have the time.
verbatims are better
