Looking for glossy inkjet printable 25 GB media. (A surface similar to the TY watershield.)

Glossy options appear to be limited.

Is the PlexDisc media any good? Compared toe Verbatim DataLifePlus (not glossy)?

TIA for any input.

BD-R was never quite as bad as DVD-R, being harsh good or bad. I didn't buy any in 2018 at all, not needed, but my preference has always been for Verbatim/Mitsubishi. But I've really not had any major issues with Ritek or even Philips/CMC. Ritek was never bad media, just marginal. But in past years they turned that around some. Still not MCC/MKM, but not jnuk like Umedisc.

If for myself, always Verbatim.
I don't consider $41 per 50 expensive: https://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-Data...language=en_US
I still remember buying decent VHS tapes for $2-3 each, SL DVD-R for $1-3 each.

If for others, and they want to pinch pennies, Ritek.

I've never had a major problem with HTL vs. LTH either.

Pledisc is Optodisc, and they were a pretty operation in the DVD-R era ... if that's the same company (and I believe it is). It's sometimes hard to tell if the name/employees/etc behind a company has remained the same, or has turned into another operation hiding behind the old name.
