stay away from these discs.... i run a photo and music studio and bought a 200 of these discs to back up most of my files... BUrnt them at 8x and when the time came to put them back onto my hard drive..PROBLEMS PROBLEMS PROBLEMS>.. the disc would no read... tried burning dvd's on there... same problems.. i've dealt with many DVD r's before.. memorex is the worst!... clearly it wasnt my burner because i tried the discs on 4 different machines.... looking for reliable discs... go with Sony DVD+R they're by far the best!

I have used a number (about 40) of these blank DVD's and haven't encountered a bad one yet. Highly recommended!

I thought this pack of 50 DVD+R was good, but I would recommend you get the brand Verbatim. Memorex is cheap and reliable, but your best bet would be Verbatim since it's much more reliable and can keep your files and anything you put on it safe and secure.

I bought two 25 packs on sale and regret it. I've used about half of them and have thrown out around 5 because they wouldn't work. Now I come to find out that even though the images I saved on one disc before overhauling my pc are showing as thumbnails(I did a double check before deleting them) the disc causes whatever program I'm trying to open a file with to lock up, so it's useless and now I worry that I may not be able to replace some of those images and photoshop projects that I use on my website. If I were the litigious type I would be discussing a lawsuit right now. I worry as well about all the other disc's I have burned which I haven't actually tried to open a file on yet.

No comment. Everything is OK !

I have to lower the speed to 4x or the write would fail.

the memorex dvd+16x4.7gb50 was just perfect for my new dvd recorder it works welltogether.

More than half of these had a problem when trying to read after writing.

Bad sectors. This is scary as when you are using to backup, you don't know they are bad until you NEED the backup. I am really surprised that Memorex quality is this bad.

What can you say about recordable media. This is packaged well. The shipment came as indicated in the order and all seems to be in order.

I bought these to give them a try cause I was originally interested in the 100 disks pack.
These DVDs wont disapoint you. They are die hard and work perfectly with different DVD writers up to 16x. I've also played them in DVD home theaters without a problem.
Good product.

TENGO YA MUCHO TIEMPO UTILIZANDO LOS DISCOS MEMOREX, TANTO DVD COMO CD, Y SIEMPRE HAN RESULTADO SER MUY BUENOS.

POR LO GENERAL LOS COMPRO EN EL MOMENTO EN QUE ESTAN EN OFERTA, QUE EN AMAZON CASI SIEMPRE ASI ES.

LOS RECOMIENDO AMPLIAMENTE, LOS QUE TIENEN MALOS COMENTARIOS AL RESPECTO POSIBLEMENTE SE DEBIO AL PROCESO DE QUEMADO, PROGRAMA O QUEMADOR.

I too bought these after not finding spindles of the Verbatim DL. A few work, but only a very few. I have an NEC recorder which works completely reliably on most media but not these. The machine is a dual Xeon with 2GB of RAM, so this is not a resource issue. Sigh.

it was good for the 1st 10-15 discs but the remaining couldn't be recorded on as stated disc error on every disc after that, but other discs which recorded fine.

These disks would not work with my Sony brand DVD writer. I have tried several other brands and so far everything works but Memorex.

Backed up some movies and not even 1 played well. They either skipped or didn't play at all. I backed up my harddrive with one of these and some of the files won't even open... says damaged or corrupted files... ABSOLUTE JUNK! I will stick with Verbatim from now on!

To back up my personal DVD collection I burned 200 discs. 100 on these Memorex DVD+R's, 100 on Philips DVD+R's. EVERY Memorex had flaws during playback. EVERY Philips was flawless. I've been buying Memorex for years but I'll never buy Memorex again.

I have bought 50 and 100 pack spindles of Memorex and so far I have not had any problems. They work just fine on my Sony dvd burner.

Memorex DVD+R's are the best. Price keeps dropping and never have a problem.

Memorex dvd blanks are my second choice and I bought two 50-count stacks of these because they had a great deal going on. In a perfect world, I would have gotten the same deal on 50-count stacks of Maxell dvd blanks. They are the best but you'll have a hard time finding a deal on them since everyone else knows they are the best.

I have burned over 100 of these in the past 6 months, I have only had 1 burn badly. Haven't found a dvd player yet that they won't play in.

I have never had any problem with these discs. While I will go with other brands IF price requires it, the Memorex are my first choice. I do wish they made a LightScribe version.

This DVD burning isn't as cut and dried as some would like you to believe. However, just because you get a bad burn doesn't mean it is the discs. There is a whole bunch of stuff going on in your computer that can affect the burn.

I have a Dell 2 ghz, with a Lite-On 16x drive, running Nero OEM. Pretty generic, but these Memorex 16x discs burn just fine. In fact, I have burnt about 600-800 of these discs and have had very few fall-outs(2). Not enough to justify buying the "better" quality discs.

Now for the caveat: I did have one spate of problems, caused by a not so well behaved antivirus program. I tossed out the antivirus program and went over to Avast!(it's free, check with Microsoft). Problem solved even though I run Winamp and a logging environmental sampling program while burning discs.

We burn hundreds of discs for a hospital lecture series. They are being played on all sorts of equipment, including some pretty banged up junk. So far I have not received one complaint about the discs only suggestions about the content.

Before you spend big bucks on some "better" disc, pop up your task manager in XP and see if there is some runaway task that needs some discipline or possibly your computer is too slow to run 16x. Also, if you must run "better" discs then do a surface test in Nero. I bet the "better" disc will look very close to failure if the Memorex failed.

i have no problem with this item, i use top buy a noname brands but allways there was a problems,so i try this item no problems..great item.

I bought these and they failed to even start burning. Don't waste your time, stick to TDK for brand name media. Now I am stuck with the pain of trying to return these and the vendor I bought them from is goign to force me to exchange it for the same brand UGH

I was not able to use not even a single DVD out of the whole pack. All are defective. What horrible quality is Memorex providing? I am not gonna by anything from Memorex. I have used TDK before and they worked just Great!!!

I've used memorex dvd+r's for 6 years now. If you are having a lot of problems burning DVD's it probably is the software you are using! Like any blank DVD media they don't last forever. I haven't had a coaster in 4 years. These are GREAT DVD's and are a GREAT price. I've used memorex dvd+r 4x, 8x and 16x over the years as burning speeds have upgraded. People are giving them 1 star but it's their human error and crappy software/computer that is causing them problems. If you know what you are doing, get these! Well actually, if you know what you are doing you probably already use memorex and love them :)

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.

i thought that brand name products were supposed to be better than generic. no so in this case. these were, hands down, the worst dvdrs i have ever used. i would say that 1/3 to 1/2 of them were either coasters or malfunctioned in some way. buy tdk or verbatim instead!

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.

I have to join the chorus in stating that these disks just do not work. I even tried to burn at a slower speed, different software, etc. I went out and purchased some TDKs and all of a sudden everything worked.

Beware! Nero (and other software) may burn it without reporting an error, but it will probably fail verification. I would have had a very nasty surprise down the road if I did not perform the verification at burn time.

NEC-3550A DVD drive.

I'd rate it 1 star if I could. These discs absolutely do not work.

I bought these and a new burner. They only worked for data. I went out and bought a diffrent brand and those worked just fine. I used Nero. and 1click dvd copy.

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
