Hi I am burning home videos / data to my DVDs using EMC 10.
Was wondering what brand of DVD's is good to use for burning movies\data. There are so many on the market...
Now Memorex DVD-R is on sale. Is it a good brand?
Also is there a difference between DVD-R or DVD+R?
Thank you,
Stan

In addition to what Firenhancer said, you can get Verbatims at Best Buy, and other stores like that.
Taiyo Yuden are available, online, but I have never seen them in stores.
Life is good!
