I canceled the order of Velocity DVD-R disks since it took too long to deliver.

The rebate must be postmarked within days of when the product is ordered, not when it is shipped or when it is received. I received my product too late to claim the rebate.

This is my second purchase of this item. I did not experience any problem with the first ten and the rebate came as quickly as any rebate. The reviewer who indicated that the rebate was a scam may not have submitted the request. I did, even though the product arrived more than 15 days after the date I purchased the item from Amazon, and received it with no questions asked. At this price, it seems to be a good deal.

Works good for me. I prefer DVD+RW because I usually prefer the option of being able to write over it. See RW from the same brand. I have tried it, works fine

I only used it for backup my movies and documents. So far they all burned succeed without problems. The quality feels so so but they do work.

I have used 6 DVD-R out of ten now. And 2 failed. I use Sony FS550. Maybe they are not very compatible, or I burned too much data on a single disc. (I usually burn 4450MB, close to the 4489 limit shown on Nero)

I've only burned two of these so far, but the first one I burned failed from a media error. The second one finished burning, but my burner (a Pioneer DVR-104) only supported it at 1x. I'd complain a lot more, but it did have a free rebate, so hey. I wish they had a website where I could make a customer service inquiry, but I searched for quite a while and couldn't find one. Oh well.

These work great and are a good deal after rebate

This media is free after rebate so you cant beat the price. But is it worth the effort to send out the rebates? hmm depends on how lazy you are with rebates. Anycase this is a Media code from the manufacture Optodisk. though its not listed from www.dvdhelp.com yet. I burned one movie to it and it seemed to work fine. I'm not sure how well it would be at full speed though. I dont like to risk burning fast so i go at 2x or 2.4x most of the time. though i do have a 8x drive my max write is 4 for any media. my logic is that if it cant read faster then 8x how could it write as fast? Someone with a drive that can read PI/PO errors and jitter test like a Benq would be better suited to read the quality of the media. So far my one burn is great:) I always do a verify test. the shippment came late for me cause the item wasnt in stock at the time. but amazon emailed me about that, im happy i got the items though.

This product although is good but the shipping sucks. I waited 15 days for the product and by then the rebate had expired since it needs to be sent with the package invoice and since the package was very very late I couldnt help it.

so be aware of this trick that they play.
