I was looking at vendor reviews as to where to lay my hands on some decent media locally. Which may not be possible and I may just do
Amazon. I noticed that OfficeMax is listed as having good Verbatim media sometimes, but Office Depot is listed as selling junk. Thing is, Office Depot owns OfficeMax now. They have no independent existence anymore, you can't go to an OfficeMax website for instance. I'm checking out Office Depot's website now; I don't plan to be surprised.
Suggest noting that OfficeMax is no more / owned by Office Depot in the reviews.
