Started buying these in Jan 2009 when they were $79.00 / 15pk. I made 30 disks at that time. No coasters. They seemed to work great. I always burn at a slower than the rated speed & I do a verify afterwards.

I needed to get data off of one of the disks in December 2009. I found all the disks burned in January were completely unreadable. One disk that was made in Feb was partially readable using recovery tools. I made 2 disks in March that were fully readable. Altogether I lost 27 Blu-ray data disks that cost me over $150.00. I bought Memorex because I trusted the brand name. Some manager at Memorex figured out how to cut costs on these disks and I'm sure he got a large bonus for improving profits. To the management at Memorex - may the fleas of a thousand stag deer infest your armpits.

1.0 out of 5 stars Memorex = Ritek = Garbage, April 4, 2010

5-10 people making the same complaint can't be wrong. I never write reviews, but this stuff angers me so much that I must. First of all, pay attention to what your media really is. Memorex, Maxell, these are just rebrands of Ritek media. Ritek has always been garbage, but at the time I purchased these, they were the only affordable brand on the market. They usually burn fine, and work, at first. But after some time passes, none of them are readable anymore. I will never buy ANYthing Memorex, Maxell, or Ritek EVER again. Go with Verbatims instead, or maybe even Panasonic like others have said. But do yourself a favor and check the media code. If it says Ritek, return it immediately.

1.0 out of 5 stars Burned six discs -- all are now unreadable, February 8, 2010

I had the same experience as the other person -- I have burned six of these BD-R discs, some as recently as November 2009, and now none of those discs will play. I have tried them in several Blu-ray players, as well as the LG burner that created them, and they pretty much behave like a blank disc. This is disappointing, to say the least! Hopefully it was just a bad batch -- I bought them in May of 2009. I have some Panasonic BD-Rs that I burned several years ago, and those still play fine.
