WARNING MEMOREX DVDS HAVE NO LASTING LIFE
I had no problems burning to these discs, its when I went back a few months later to these discs and found out that none of them work anymore. After further research I found out that Memorex uses the cheapest dye available and thus the DVDs have absolutelly no life to them, my discs started dying after a few months.
In addition, in you physically hold the disc in your hands you can feel how warped physically it has become. This is true for all the discs (about 150 of them). I CAN NOT NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT STRONLY ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avoid at all costs
I thought Memorex was supposed to mean quality. These DVDs have totally exploded that notion. When I first started using these, the first half dozen spindles I bought worked great. However, the past few I have bought have been totally defective. I have bought from different stores, so I know it isn't just a case of me getting a "bad batch." 1/2 to 2/3rds of the disks in any spindle are totally dead. Seeing these other reviews, I know I am not alone. I would have to strongly advise people not to waste their money on these defective coasters, unless they like gambling with their money. The odds are not in your favor.
Burns Ok, but will not read in set-top player.
I was able to burn videos to these discs just fine. Don't let that fool you though. I was disgusted to find out that nearly all of them would not play correctly on my Sony set-top DVD player. Whenever they get to the end of the movie, the player skips back a few chapters or just quits all together. The problem seems to be at the outside of the disks because the shorter movies that I burned seemed to work ok (they don't use the whole disk). I could even look at the burnt disks under a bright light and see dark spots on the disks that I think is just poor manufacturing. I was able to read them again on my PC though and make another copy to a good disk so that was life saver. My suggestion, go with another company that actually has a quality assurance department.
