1.0 out of 5 stars Defective disks, December 26, 2007

By	sg_Miami - See all my reviews

I purchased 2 packages of these and tried burning 4 disks from one package and 1 disk from the other--each with different content. My burner showed the burns as being successful, but, when played, each disk faltered at about 70% through. The disks would then intermittenly run and pause for about five minutes before normally playing again until reaching about 95% of the recording before freezing completely.
As it's a real bummer to watch 95% of a recording and then not be able to watch the ending; don't buy Matrix disks.

1.0 out of 5 stars Coaster City, August 6, 2007

By	Konrad "me" (California) - See all my reviews

Out of 25 disks, I have had 10 burn properly. With a 2/5 success rate, these are great for making coasters, terrible as DVD media. I used three different computers, with three different burners, so this is not a machine or burner issue. Almost all the problems were in the second layer, and caused massive CRC errors with the data put on them. In short, they would have to sell for a quarter their present price to make up for wasted disks and time. As of now they are just overpriced junk.

1.0 out of 5 stars Skip this, December 31, 2008

By	Siskoism - See all my reviews

Bought these awhile ago (25 pack) when on sale, and of the 6 discs I've burned so far across 2 different burners (LiteOn and Samsung), none of them work. The burns complete successfully, but the discs just can't be read.

I burnt them at 2.4X; tried ISOs and simple data files, used Nero, Alcohol, Imgburn (InfraRecorder wouldn't even recognize the discs)... all to no avail. Evidently from the other reviews, there ARE some drives that can read them... just not any of mine!

Not sure if Amazon still stocks them, but in case they do, skip 'em and go for something more reliable/compatible.

DL DVD+R's are usually (in my experience) twice the price of normal DVD+R's and so this spindle seemed like a decent purchase. Read more
