Best deal on DVD+/-R?

Hi,

Was wondering which stores has the best deals on DVD+/-Rs, I know bestbuy has the fujifilms for 19.99 but how is the quality, ie media code and such.

What are you guys planning to buy?

Thanks

if the Fuji's are made in Japan then they are great.. (fuji MIJ = taiyo yuden's)

Futureshop has 100 on sale for $40... not a bad deal.

I've got several hundred DVD+R and -R, but I really want to get some of those Fujifilm, especially if they're the Made In Japan ones (Taiyo Yuden = best of the best); closest BB is in Calgary NE, but I hope I can make it there anyway... torn too, I just got one of those Epson R200, so I should be trying to get more inkjet printables, but I'll cave in and try to get some of these anyway

The FutureShop Benq DVD-Rs on special are quite good, not too sure about the DVD+R, but the DVD-Rs are pretty much all 4x SONY04D1 (media code), which I've been burning with quite low error rates on my NEC ND-3500A at 8x (one of the hacked firmwares I use had them burning at 12x with less success)....

today I picked 10-pck of DVD+R Verbatim at Futureshop and they're MCC 003, burn wonderfully with my BenQ 1620 which also got at Futureshop (but I 'm gonna return it in a few week anyway cuz 140bucks for this baby is way over price...)

if you have a DVD+R crunch like the BenQ 1620, then media is not that big of a problem

I need some advice. Which one should I buy, DVD-R or DVD+R? Which one is better and more compatible? Or are there really any significant differences at all between the 2 formats?

Thanks in advance,

DVD+r's burn faster but 1 to 2 mins but not too much difference.. dvd+r's might have a compability problem with older dvd players..

liek i posted in another thread

id rather go for the deal they have at FS for the BenQ dvd-/+r
10$ for 25 (0.40 each)
19$ for 50 (0.38 each)
35$ for 100 (0.35 each)
60$ for 200 (0.30 each)

and the 50 and 100 pack are sony discs, which is good for me

DVD+R are better if you have a newer drive than supports "bit-setting", DVD+R is also an open standard, no royalties so expect +R to be cheaper in the near future.

If you have an older burner you are probably better off with DVD-R.
