    1 out of 5 stars Waste of Money   November 21, 2008
    jsrF1 (Gilbert, AZ)
    I bought these on another site and while I saw a few reviews saying they didn't work, I dismissed those reviews as being the standard people who don't know how to use the product or just like to complain. Well, I was wrong. These things are completely worthless. Like everyone else, I tried to burn half a dozen and everyone failed while starting the second layer.

    Do not waste your money on these. Even if you have purchased these in the past and they worked, I'd stay away. According to some people on the other site, Memorex switched their DVD supplier last year from a high quality disc to this junk.

    Stay away!

    1 out of 5 stars Another dagger to Memorex's Heart   November 14, 2008
    J.R. (Florida)
    Well I have been using Memorex DVD+R DL disks exclusively now for some time. In fact, they are the ONLY disks that my Memorex Dual Layer burner have ever had in them. The first spindle of 50 that I purchased seemed to work well till I got to the bottom half of the stack. Then it seemed that one out of every three or so would fail. On the next couple of spindles I had much better luck with only an occasional failure. However, this week I have had nothing but trouble with a spindle of 25 I recently purchased from Circuit City. The bottom half of this spindle has had a 50% failure rate. When you factor the high failure rate into the cost of purchase, the "good deal" price of these Memorex media are not such a good deal. And that is even if your time is of no value to you at all. The fact that both of my DVD burners are Memorex devices prevents me from pointing my finger at anything else but the media. Unfortunalely I have two spindles of 25 left. Hope they fair better than this last one.


    1 out of 5 stars Memorex DVD+R DL Worthless   September 22, 2008
    Joel Buckley (Hershey, PA)
    Failure rate about 90% on my Compaq Desktop.
    Almost all fail at 2nd layer.
    DVD burner worked fine with Dynex DVD DL.



    4 out of 5 stars Works great with Sony DRX-840U   September 3, 2008
    C. Bujold (Chandler, AZ)
    I bought the 25 pack spindle bundled with the Sony DRX-840U DVD burner. I didn't get a single failure out of all of them. Then I bought a 10 pack spindle of Memorex DL disks a couple of weeks later with the same results. I'm using ImgBurn for my burning software.
