Default DVD-R STOCK

I have been having issues with dvd stock that I use to supply masters to clients (corrupt data). Can anyone tell me what is the most reliable DVD-R stock?

the Taiyo Yuden is great. Otherwise I have never had a problem with Sony or TDK. The problem presents itself while burning, but I'd say that happens to me less than 1% of the time. Anytime a client has had a problem, its due to them having a very old DVD player that won't play DVD-R.

Buy from here:
http://www.supermediastore.com

We only use Taiyo Yuden.
Supermediastore is super fast and has very good prices!
PS Tom, Look at the price difference. 200 for $29 vs 100 for $32!

Great thanks guys. I was using Fuji DVD stock and for some reason when you copy the session off the disc it would playback the wrong audio in different spots like it read the data wrong. At first I thought it was 7.3 but it looks like an error copying from the discs.

THANK YOU!!

hi marti,

thanks for the heads up!

i buy these :

TAIYO INKJET PRINTABLE MERTILINE

compared to :

TAIYO - SUPERMEDIA

your place is .04¢ cheaper. thanks fro your .02¢ x2! ... but i'll keep watching prices.

i bought an Epson Injet printer that prints onto the DVD's and it looks VERY pro!
