Quite often these are $25 at Newegg.

That would be a better deal if they were worth a fuck, sure. But memorex, imo, arent worth the plastic theyre "printed" on. Verbatim is the only way to go. You get what you pay for.

For those of us that know better, there was not a post for 50 Verbatim DL's for $35 last week or at anytime in the past.
I got these last time from Newegg at $25. The disc code comes up as DataLifePlus, so they should have exceptional archival life. Definitely worth the price for stuff you want to keep. My new LG burner records these at 4x (about 40 discs with no coasters yet)

Not a deal at all. Even with free shipping. Might get them cheaper at Best Buy.

#12, Best Buy has a 5 pack of Verbatim DL for $21. I don't think you are going to find a better deal there. However, Newegg is currently $1 cheaper and sometimes has them $2 cheaper.

This is $1.35/disk. I buy these at Sam's Club, $59.97 for a 25-pack, which is $1.20/disk (+tax). Of course, a Sam's Club membership is required. It's the best DL media out there.

#14 must be on some GOOOOD drugs. $50/25 is $2. $60/25 is about $2.40, right? And he thinks this is the best media out there? I want some of what he's smoking.

Verbatim is very reliable. Stay away from Memorex.

$59.97/50 = $1.20 is the Sams Club price.
