Wow!
E-Net must have been bored

ADVInfo: CMC MAG. AE1
SVP Price: £8.39 / Euro 12.35 inc VAT.
Equivalent Retail Price Per Disc: 16.8p
Not bad I guess, wonder if they’re overprints or not
{DV 3281} Datawrite Red (8x) DVD-R in Spindle Tubs of 50
This new 8x DVD-R is sure to also be popular with customers looking for a well presented, well packaged, budget priced disc.

You might as well buy the RiVision at that price
{DV 3278} Smiley (16x) DVD-R in Spindle Tubs of 50
These new Smiley discs come from the same line of thinking as the Scribbles CDR and will appeal to customers who like their discs to come with a slightly humourous novelty design.

SVP Price: £10.93 / Euro 16.07 inc VAT.
Equivalent Retail Price Per Disc: 21.9p
Mmm…Seems a bit suspicious these. Never heard of that CMC code, so I can’t really say much about the quality
{DV 3279} Datawrite Yellow (16x) DVD-R in Spindle Tubs of 25
This is the new version of one of the most popular DVD-R discs in Europe.
ADVInfo: TTH02
SVP Price: £6.31 / Euro 9.28 inc VAT.

Never had many problems with the Yellow 8x discs, although they kept having a dye change. Wonder how these will develop - Will keep my eye on this brand
{DV 3276} Datawrite ‘Optima Blue’ (16x) DVD-R in Packs of 25
ADVInfo: RITEKF1
SVP Price: £6.52 / Euro 9.60 inc VAT.
Equivalent Retail Price Per Disc: 26.1p
My writers HATE the Optima Blue 8x discs, have Ritek got the 16x dye right and more importantly will they keep the quality high when a larger amount of people start using 16 speed discs? Hmm…
{DV 3282} Ridisc Extreme Branded (16x) DVD-R in Packs of 25
Ridisc and Ritek are both publicising the launch of the product so we can assume they both believe it is a product they can be proud of.

The RiDisc 2x were great, the RiDisc 4x were great (Until they stopped using the G04 dye…), the RiDisc Blue 8x seem to have settled on the reliable CMC Mag AE1 dye but I’ve never been a great fan of the G05 “Xtreme” RiDiscs for some reason.
Also I notice some of the discs in 25 packs especially no longer use tubs, instead opting for shrinkwrap packaging. I hate the packaging, you want to use one disc and you have nowhere to put the other 24!
It will be interesting to see how these new lines perform over the next few weeks/months
