What do the experienced consider the best brands of blank media and the best sources for them?  Thanks.

Personally I prefer TDK but I think that I have heard that they are getting out of the media business (I could be wrong).  I also like verbatum.

DVD's the best is Taiyo Yuden. I get mine from http://supermediastore.com/index.html

I think Verbatim is equaly good. The real ones from Mitsubishi Chemical I mean. Check your drive's recommended media list. For my NEC it says Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden for instance. But different drive manufacturers will probably have different recommendations.

Still, I think the media importance is a wee bit overrated. The box of cheap Fuji's and a small spindle of Imation DVD's I got for a Sinterklaas present burn just fine...
