| There is a new package of Memorex DL on sale for $13:http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/subcla...EN&catid=20032 This makes it $1.3 per disk. I wonder whether it is the same cheap Ritek D01 or not.. Cheers |
| Imation DVD-R 100 Pack Futureshop 19.99 OPTODISCR016 Burned on Benq DW1655 at 8x. |
| Future Shop sells 25-packs of Philips-branded CMC MAG D04 [8x +R DL media] for $29.99, beginning today... that's $1.20 Canadian, or about $1.07 US per disc. [I've bought a pack but won't be able to properly test them until I get back home.] http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...on=&langid=EN#

| BTW can anyone suggest me where to buy 8x DVD+RW or 6x DVD-RW by piece, not in cake boxes? I'm just tired of 4x burning.. Thanks in advance. |
| Ok, here is the first scan of one of these.. I think it looks good enough for Sony. It was burned at 8 on Pio 111L 8.26 |

| HUGE $ 250 price drop on Toshiba HD-A30 with HDMI 1.3 On the printed catalogue it comes with two movies. Whatever is the future of the format, for 200 bucks you can use it as a decent upconverter. http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/cla...EN&catid=25320 |
