5.0 out of 5 stars A bit overpriced, but works perfectly and suits Verbatim's reputation., January 18, 2009

I'm not sure what the previous reviewer's problems were, but I've burnt about 20 of these discs so far with no problems at all. I have used CloneCD and Nero for Windows, Toast for the Mac. All have played flawlessly in my disc players.

As I mentioned in the title, it is a bit overpriced. You could get about double these discs for the same price without the Lightscribe feature. But for those that prefer laser designs over black markers for their discs, then this is a great option for dual-layer.

Other than the price, these discs work great. I don't understand the issues some are having. I have durned all 10 discs with no problem. I use ConvertXToDVD 4 and have the settings set to DVD9 and it burns like a charm.

For those having issues:

Make sure you change your settings in your program. If they're set to DVD5 it may not burn correctly.

Make sure your drive is DL compatible. Not all drives are.

These Verbatim blank discs are great. I've used these same discs many times in the past. Not one single coaster & they all burn just fine. Verbatim media are just better than any other media brands. These are well worth the price!
