you get what you pay for:

Great Moments in Socialized Medicine
“A New Brunswick man who told police that a friendly dog scuttled his plan for a bloody shooting rampage was sentenced Wednesday to a three-year prison term after admitting it was all a ploy to get life-saving surgery while in jail,” the Canadian Press reports from Toronto:

Ontario Court Justice Brent Knazan described James Stanson as a "manipulative, duplicitous, entitled con-man" who headed to east Toronto last June "to hatch a plan that would lead to his detention (and) the medical treatment he needed."

"It is important that I give a sentence that denounces (Stanson's) conduct and deters anyone else from doing the same," Knazan said, rejecting the defence's request for a sentence of one year, less a day, to be served in the community.

But Stanson’s plan worked; he did indeed get the heart operation he needed while he was in custody. Self-righteous Europeans and Canadians love to call America “barbaric” for our private medical system and our refusal to abolish capital punishment–but at least we don’t sentence innocent people to death, as Canada’s medical system effectively does.

#12

darn, no CompUSA ad this week, I was hoping to land on some TY discs week, oh well, wait for next week

#13

BB got TDK’s which are TY if MIJ.

#14

This looks interesting at Best Buy:

memorex 25 pack 16x dvd+/-r 9.99$ 7142004/7142031

#15

The +R can be CMCMAGM01, good one. The -R can be CMCMAGAM3–not that good.

#16

I live in Hawaii, no Bestbuy, they are opening one up soon though. They have the building up with the store sign, but they are not gonna open till August

#17

@zevia:

Which do you prefer for your BenQ 1620: TDK 8x +R ( YUDEN000 T02? ) or Memorex 16x +R ( CMC M01 )? I haven’t found very many scans of CMC M01’s, but the YUDEN000 T02’s obviously have had solid performance esp. @ 12x burns - ie. judging by the myriad of scans posted.

So, then the MID/TID possibilities are:

[ MEMOREX 16X +R ]
MIJ: ?
MIT: CMC M01 (?)

[ MEMOREX 16x -R ]
MIJ: ?
MIT: CMC AM3 (?)

[ TDK 8x +R ]
MIJ: YUDEN000 T02
MIT: CMC E01 (?)

[ TDK 8x -R ]
MIJ: ?
MIT: ?

#18

The memorex 16x is still pretty new media so I guess that we will have to see what shows up. Acording to what has been reported on videohelp

memorex dvd-r 16x
cmc am3

memorex dvd+r 16x
cmc m01 (3)
mcc004 (1)
philips c16 (1)
prodisk r04 (2)
The number in parenthesis is how many people reported getting that media. It kind of looks like memorex is up to thier same old shit of using whatever media they can get cheapest. If they are, even more media codes could show up. I think that I have heard of some memorex 16x+r that was made in india which would have to MB so thats 5 medias they are using so far. I suspect that most of it will turn out to be cmc but who knows. I’m guessing that they are probably getting the mcc from cmc (same way ritek can be ritek or ricoh) so maybe well get lucky and start seeing a bunch of mcc, but I doubt it. I do not think that anyone has seen any made in japan memorex 16x yet.
Tdk 8x+r can be
made in tiawan
ricohjpnr02
cmcmag e01
tdk 002
if made in india
MBIPG101R04
if made in japan
yuden00t02
(a little bit of ricoh has shown up in the US and Europe that was marked made in japan, but not much of it).
In all honesty, while they use several medias, they all seem to be decent media so it’s probably safe to buy, bt not the best if you are looking for specific media from the made in tiawan list.

tdk 8x-r are reported to be
TTG02 (52)
TTH01 (4)
TYG02 (2)
so it looks like the odds are high you will get ttg02. I don’t think that any of the tdk media codes are made in japan, so I’m guessing that if it is made in japan, it’s ty, but I could be wriong.

#19

Ripit, a bunch of TDK -R are made in Japan at CompUSA in Hawaii. But I am waiting for the $19.99 sale on those

#20

thanks!! I may have to check around and see if anybody has some here and get a price match. I have been wanting to try some ty - media.
It might not hurt to see if compusa will price match bestbuys price. I know that best buy is not open yet but it might not hurt to call and talk to a manager. If you catch them in a good mood I think that they hae a lot of leway on their decisions.
