It is either CMC or RITEK. It's horrible media. Waste of money. Just get the MKM Verbatim discs. They are often on sale for $2 each.

RITEK DL is not too bad if you have something like an APEX or Cyberhome player but it almost refuses to play on the higher end players. I was given a spindle of 50 by my friend because he could not use them and all have burned, verified and played fine on the cheaper players but have a HARD time reading on the nice or better equipped players

Best Buy often has the best sales of Verbatim I think they are running a 50 pack for $79 at the moment and 25 pack for $50 when I went on Saturday

Fuji is the same. RITEK or CMC. I would avoid it.
Right now, the USA has 3 choices in media: RITEK, CMC and MKM

The only way to get the best one, the MKM, is to buy Verbatim.
