Got mine burn 100% @ 2.4x, about time prices on quality Dual layers starts to come down, it helps when 1 supplier reduces margins then the others follow suite...
Just its who is the bravest to do it first _________________

another waste of money imo used about 12 so far only 1 failure but most either not working or coming up with dirty disc errors back to the verbs and staying there
Yea I was looking at all the bargains but to be honest I can buy a £1.70 odd verb and have it last 'forever' or pay 85p for a cheap media that will probably last a few years if that and will then need to be reburned, bringing the actual cost up to £1.70 and so on.
If you want the best of course go into woolies and buy the damn original which I assure will cost you a lot more _________________ I don't buy, sell or trade unless you own the original or destroy your backups within 24hrs...I come here for the fun discussion mainly

Where can you buy printable verbs for £1.70 inc post? and if the cheaper one only last a few years as you say then you have to reburn them by that time the verbs and stuff would be DIRT cheap anyway..
Just cos they are cheap dont always mean they are rubbish, just need to be burnt in optimal conditions with right programme and know how..
You pay your money and take your choice i for 1 will carry on using these til verbs come down as bit of a rip at the moment in my view, or buy the original game as mentioned above!!!! _________________
