    I understand and there is no problem my friend. I was just saying I agree with mainman that they are the value line of Verbatim discs. And they probably have the Fuji dye on them that some burners have problems with. AZO dye is a good rule of thumb but is not the end all be all, Taiyo Yuden does not use AZO dye is arguably the best single layer blank there is.

      I agree with that as they all I use for my back ups. I have about 500 verbies sitting collecting dust because of that.

        Has any heard of or experienced the Memorex 25gb Blu-rays 4x becoming unreadable or data loss after a period of time?

          This is not the only reason discs deteriorate over time and lose data, but I think the biggest is storage. The dye used is photo reactive and the laser burns a dark spot on the disc that does not reflect the reading laser light back to the pickup. Over time the dye will darken when exposed to light until nothing is reflected back to the read pickup. Note that every commercially released movie disc is packaged in an opaque case; no light can enter when stored. Folks who store their DVD in a clear jewel case can expect very short data life especially those of not particularly high quality. Keep em' in the dark!

            I did not know that. Only thing is don't hear about this happening to other media like verbatim. Is it because they may use a different type of dye?

              Yes the metal AZO dyes used in the premium level Verbatim disks are much better, they even advertise 100 year data archive life. But I guarantee they won’t do it if stored in a clear jewel box.

                        Yes, sorry 90312 I ordered the -R but posted the +R, as that is what you posted from Tiger but were not the AZO Dye ones in case someone was interested in the +R sorry for the confusion forgot to mention that I bought the -R when I posted when I bought them
