Out of the first 25 that I've burned, 14 disc failed!

I've been using these things for years and can't even remember the last time I had a bad disc

Meanwhile I have 100 bad discs and no refund or replacement discs

I just purchased a spindleof these instead of the more expensive Verbatim discs which are 99% plus reliable

I had burned hundreds of the Verbatim DL discs with maybe 3-4 bad discs TOTAL, but was willing to give the Memorex a shot since they were considerably less expensive

My only issue is that the middle post of the dvd spindle broke immediately, but the discs themselves seem to work fine so far.

The first four discs worked fine without a hitch but after that coding deficiencies occurred that made it impossible to play on a DVD player.

Almost no failures or bad discs

I have burned 4 or 5 disc so far and everyone has burned properly

Today I burned the first two discs with no problems whatsoever.

Have a couple of stable machines that will burn DL discs sucessfully, never had any coasters until these.

I have found memorex to be the best disc maker.

Even when that would happen the discs would still burn just fine

If you are going to burn a dual layer disc, please have some common knowledge on how to burn before you start

There were a few trashed discs, I admit, but on the whole, it worked out

I also know of people who use Verbatim and Memorex and get bad results because they have a bad burner!I'm telling you all, these discs really are great and worth the value

I wasted a number of discs trying to record the same material repeatedly, and errors repeatedly trashed the discs

Very good discs, had no problems with them so far.

No issues burning discs with it, works great

Great Buy, this was our second order and will probably buy more soon, real soon!We recommend these discs, it will be worth it.

im still not try the discs for pc files like video,pics etc, but if it work for xbox 360 , it work for anything else, got the ones made on Taiwan

I started burning the discs several days ago and all failed

There have been a few failed discs from some spindles, but overall we have used these repeatedly with few issues

That means 45 good discs for $37 = ~82cents per disc.

I successfully burned this disc with iMac (2.4 G Intel Duo Core OS X 10.5.5) which has Optiarc DVD RW

These discs will not burn, not happy!Thanks,Tony Volonino

if using for video backup great, game backups not so great.....load times are terrible and unreadable disc errors occur

These discs work great

Every other disc on the pack is defective.

I've burnt 5 Memorex so far, which have produced 2 that did not verify correctly and the other 3 are problematic when playing on an inexpensive DVD player connected to a TV (the other higher quality DVD player I have succeeds in playing these 3 discs though).

Since they seemed to be the most economical DL discs available (at less than 60 cents each) and I have had good experiences with Memorex products in the past, I took the gamble and ordered them.

Condition of goods = excellent, 2 disc failed = 4% failure... not bad :)

You guys that are having problems are obviously burning the discs wrong

I quickly checked a few reviews before buying these and saw several people saying these discs were great, every one else is just stupid

I generally use Sony or Phillips discs, since they both work without problems in both my home recorder and my computer

The answer was shrill, just like the sound of my computer regurgitating a substandard disc, MEMOREX.

These discs are burning too many coasters

The individual price come to about $1.87 per good disc for the price I paid for the spindle back in April

dl discs with almost 50% coasters, and 100% bad on my lite-on burnerusing windows 7.With these Memorex discs, I have burned over 12 discs so far without a failure

(On occasion you will get a bad disc or coaster as they call it).

When I burn a disc on my computer (using HP with Vista) I set my burning speed to the lowest speed which is

I have always used Verbatim discs after my fiasco with cheap discs two years ago and never had any problems

In fact, whenever possible, I don't do anything else on the PC while actually burning the disc.

So I bought VERBATIM, what a relieve, first disc in, works like a champ.

I am currently burning 7th disc of this package, and 5 of them failed in verification at 50%

Every disc was flawless.

These discs however would be a joke... if they were funny

The discs worked in a wide variety of DVD-ROM and standalone DVD players

If you know how to burn discs and you need a cheap way out, this is definitely the cheapest buy

Based on the mixed reviews, my guess is that these discs may not be compatible with all burners but I personally haven't an issue with them.

I use these for my business and cannot afford to have disc burning issues.

I then tried Roxio's Toast Titanium 11 and the disc burned just fine.

and I've had nearly perfect success burning discs.

only the top 6 discs worked the other 44 were not recognized in any of 6 different computers with 4 different OS' and 6 different types of dvd-ram drives

I just received them yesterday and burned 4 discs

Then it just so happens that all these discs were empty?These discs just do not work.

When I attempted to use Apple's iDVD software to burn my first disc I used the "fastest" speed which leaves it up to the software to decide what to do.

So far I have burnt 3 discs and only 1 that actually successfully finished the job

I tried these discs and love them so far

These discs work without problem on my PowerMac G4 MDD, OS 10.4.11, Pioneer 118 disc drive, Toast 9

I see a lot of people complaining about a high fail rate and any disc will fail if your using too many computer resources when trying to burn and using a high speed

Our DVD burner was not the problem, as other discs were tested and they burned just fine

I was able to burn two discs out of the six that I've used.

Good a few disc did not work,

And I should not blame these DVD discs when they first failed me

Even using the best burning software out there (ImageBurn and DVDProInfo) it is easy to see these discs are pure junk

You can buy Memorex cheaper than other dual layer brands, but when almost every other disc is defective you are in-effect paying double the price.

Maybe I was able to burn like 2-3 discs successfully

Maybe I was able to burn like 2-3 discs successfully

50 pack of these are great but the concern is when you burn a disc a few weeks later with few scratches these dvds stop working

Memorex discs have always been, in my mind, one of the best discs available, and even thought their a little cheaper than verbatim, they have always performed as well

I've only burned 6 or 7 discs so far

to strongly disagree!!I bought these to burn some downloaded anime on dvds to clear up space on my hard disc, i have never had a failure on any

These discs are completely unreliable

These disc's are great since there is no pre-printing (silk screening) on the top of the disc

Every disc has burned perfectly so far.

I have purchased & used this product from local retail vendors and never had any trouble burning these discs.

I cannot burn a good disc at 8x.

Good a few disc did not work,

I know people who use cheap, crappy discs but get perfect burns because their burners are excellent

the disc may seem ok after you burn it or do a verify read, it should seriously cast doubts as to whether it will down the road.

went through a whole spindle of 50 and not one bad disc you need a good burner for these discs I have a 5 year old pioneer dvd burner and its always been good to be.

but I learned from past experience that the time is worth the headache of tossing failed discs

Almost every time I burned a disc, though, I went through at least one, if not more, discs that didn't work

I have wasted over half the discs, and I am still unable to use the product.

One good thing (if at all possible) is that it wouldn't ruin the disc after each failure

These are the most unreliable optical discs I have ever used.

I burn these discs at every different speed but as with any disc if you want to save yourself some hassle, always take a few extra mins and burn at a lower speed

The laser ruined the first 8x disc

So in closing these discs work absolutely fine for a great price

When I called Memorex customer support I ended up with a rep that didn't speak English well enough for me to understand all of what he said, but the guts of the call was now that I'd ruined 5 discs from the top of the stack he wanted me to burn 5 from the middle and 5 from the bottom.

The price made it a steal (.53 cents a disc)

When I finally got a disc that would even burn (disc #6 of 25) it got to 99% and gave me an error message

What kind of contemptible abomination would allow me to experience a 30+ disc failure rate?

and I've had nearly perfect success burning discs.

On the same computer, I have burnt 3 DVD+R DL Verbatum brand discs, which all verified correctly and would play without problem on my cheap DVD player...

While it's unfortunate to have to make adjustments in order to get a product to work (the Verbatim discs can burn at any speed without

Once I have burned and stored the disc I found that I need to clean the disc before viewing again.

I am willing to accept that we received a bad batch, and we would like some sort of replacement for the failed discs we ordered to see if this is indeed the case

I tried to burn the 1st disc and it did not work

So now I am left with forty-one bad Memorex dual layer discs out of the pack of fifty that I purchased.

I have to throw a disc out from time to time but the cost per usable disc is still far better than any other

I proceeded to burn the first disc from an image that is just a little bit too large for a single layer disc.

I get my first bad disc I absolutely LOVE Memorex.

I burn the disc with my Apple iMac and so far no problem.

The last batch I bought were completely defective, I went through about 10 bad discs before deciding they were all junk.

The discs didn't work.

I've burned 28 discs with only one coaster.

I do find a few in each shipment that are bad disc like one out of

then it will show that a error occured, the disc wont burn past the layer break and since I used all of them I couldnt return them

I have gotten a few discs that would load after burning, but invariable freeze due to the garbage that was encoded

In the last 6 months or so, I've had two 50 pack spindels that were all bad discs.

but the discs work great

I have burned 12 discs by 6X recording speed but there are 2 out of them failed while playing in my computer.

I have burned over one hundred discs without a single failure

You guys that are having problems are obviously burning the discs wrong

The answer was shrill, just like the sound of my computer regurgitating a substandard disc, MEMOREX.

I burn 400+ discs a year

I bought these disc to backup my movies and stuff but most of the disc were fake they couldn't burn right!

Once I hit about a third of the way through the DVD pack, every disc is bad.

I once wasted 3-4 disc's trying to burn a game and then decided to use the one's i bought at wal-mart, worked like a charm

Great discs.

These are by far the best dual layer discs I've used, and the only brand I use just because the price is perfect

Great disc set and not one coaster in the bunch

I use Windows Explorer to burn discs.

Once I realized the disc contained 7.96 GB instead of the advertised 8.5 GB I have made sure to make my recordings under 7.96 GB and everything has worked fine.

the memorex was a good quality before, but now i dont know what is happening with all the memores i buy, all the disc fail on burning in diferent burner and when i finally burn some disc it fail at read.

Condition of goods = excellent, 2 disc failed = 4% failure... not bad :)

These discs may be less expensive than others, but the possibility of multiple attempts just to get a viewable recording quickly destroys the cost savings.

I purchased Verbatim discs next and what a surprise, they all worked!

Maybe its just me, but be careful and protect your discs by putting them in a case.

Then again, if they cost half the price but fail twice as often... What I noticed was not that the discs failed all that often -- less than 5 failed discs out of 50 -- but that the discs weren't recognized by the very drive that burned them once completed!I bought this spindle to back up a bunch of my DVDs that were DVD-9s and did not want to compress them to single layer DVDs.

I burn from Windows 7 Explorer at 6x and about six discs in there are no issues

Maybe a small percentage is due to disc quality, but so far, all the discs I have used have been perfect.

the 2 Disc I've made are flawless at 2.4X speed

it's pretty sad when the first disc out of the stack doesn't write correct and messes up my media

Great discs!

For what it's worth, I tried both my desktop and laptop (different DVD drives) and both report defective discs when attempting to write at higher speeds

I am usign NERO with Sony burners and have burned about 60 discs without any problems at all

It is rare that I feel compelled to write a review, but these discs are so worthless, so utterly devoid of value, that I feel as if I've been stolen from.

For the price these discs are great

discs dont work

The words DOUBLE LAYER indicate that the capacity is 2X's the capacity of a standard DVD, other than that they are Memorex of which I feel is THE BEST BLANK DISC OUT THERE, 99% of my recorded discs are Memorex and until something else comes along that proves it's the best I'll buy Memorex

One disc said "burn fail" and I saw what looked like a fingerprint on the

No issues burning discs with it, works great

Very good discs, had no problems with them so far.

The first two discs I pulled out of the case failed

The discs failed during the burning process.

because, when I specifically set the speed to 8x, I have not had a single problem since (I've burned about two dozen discs)

The only bad disc I have gotten was because of user error, not disc quality

Every disc worked in the spindle

There were a few trashed discs, I admit, but on the whole, it worked out

I no longer blame the discs and would ask anyone having problems with this media to make sure their drive is compatible.

Very reliable product, never had a bad disc, have been using Memorex CD's and DVD's for years.

The first batch had no bad discs, the 2nd 11 (22% failure rate), and the third 2 (4%)

These discs work every time, and have the capacity for long home movies that I'm transferring from tape to disc.

I have burned 2 discs so far with no problems and am in the middle of the 3rd

In the last 6 months I have burned about 150 discs with maybe 4-5 failures

DISC ARE VERY RELIABLE AND

These discs suck

I tested the media on 4 PCs, and fortunately I found two PCs (see below) that I can use to burn these discs successfully

What can I say?The discs are perfect for what they are intededLots of movies exceed the 4.7 MB limit of most discs these days and this solves that issueWould like them even better if they were RW

Every single time, I'd burn the discs, and from the logs all the information was sent properly

The discs are great

Perhaps 1 out of 50-70 is a defective disc

Some older DVD players do have trouble reading from a burned dual layer disc and will get stuck during the layer break, however, we've only had a handful of failure in the thousands of discs we've burned over the last few years

I highly recommend these discs.

On the successful burns, the discs would stutter and freeze in my DVD player when it started playing the second layer (yes, I can tell where the layer break is).

(I had one bad disc out of the 50)

I think I've had a total of 1-2 bad discs this entire time

They may initially cost a bit more up front but if you calculate the many losses you get with Memorex you are paying much less for Verbatim due to no lost discs

The first 15 discs all burned fine at 8x with a Pioneer DVR-111D recorder, using both Nero and ImgBurn.

Sure there are some bad discs that don't burn, but this 50 pack is so cheap that if you do the math, it's probably still worth it.

If you experience problems, or before you order, ENSURE you hardware supports these discs.

These DL discs are really nice quality discs and have never had issues with Memorex discs.

I've already purchased two 50-disc spindles, and every single disc has had zero problems

I have followed the advice of others, and I am burning my discs at 4x versus the full rated speed.

The first disc crapped out on me at the layer break, but the other two that I've used have worked perfectly

Great discs, great value!

So i thought maybe i can use these to burn single layer discs, so i selected some images under 4GB and the same thing happened

These discs work great for backing up items that require dual layer

These discs worked perfectly

I haven't had any trouble as others have complained with faulty or defective discs

For the record, I burned the discs using an HP Pavilion Elite HPE-590t with an Intel i7 970

Remember if you are burning with the max speed of your burner these discs are only rated 8x

I've burned 3 discs so far and not a problem for me on my setup.

Keep in mind these discs are also a lot cheaper than the Verbatim discs

I guess I found the only 3 good discs in the batch

Every disc I have burnt so far has worked

I would recommend these any anyone who need to burn a disc for data backup or DVD authoring

I've used these discs for a long time now, but I burn them at 2.4x (the slowest by DVD burning program

Have only had two bad disc

Eventually, after about 15 successfully burned discs, I had a stack of 10 failures.

I have burned 4 or 5 disc so far and everyone has burned properly

These disc's do not qualify for an ISO 9660 rating of a true DVD+R DL.

These discs burned out my dvd player after burning 6 dvds

I've purchased many brands of double layer discs but Memorex makes the most dependable discs, in my experience.

Every disc has been perfect

Only 2 discs were not good

so I have to say that as of right not the discs are pretty good.

Great quality discs, no coasters in this batch.

amazes me that people blame these discs when the issues they're having are either hardware, ignorance, or Verbatim fan boy related

I recommend these discs.

Popped the disc in the xbox 360 tray only to find an error message (DIRTY DISC) obviously thats not the case, but what can I do

The discs looks good, but looking good is hardly the same as working good

No a single bad disc in the bunch either!Great price, great quality, fast standard shipping, what's not to like?

Avoid running too many other processes while burning your discs.

discs are fine for

The discs kept failing until I recorded at x4

Terrible discs.

I think that burning problems reported by some may be related to their disc burning software and not the disc.

Have again burned 4 discs and they play well on all DVD players.

Excellent but waiting for cheaper Blu-ray discs to come.

among 60.However a gave to a couple of friends 5 disc each, and they lost 2 o 3.Although so far the main concern it is the compatibility with standalone players

These discs seem to work fine for my purposes.

I've had maybe a couple of coasters, but I'm not even sure they were the disc's fault

This makes me wonder about all the other reviewers who complain about faulty discs

With the Verbatim I have to shut off my LG DVD player for some time and then insert the burned Verbatim discs immediately to play after starting the player.

Look at Verbatim,very good disc.

I went ahead and burned the disc at the maximum rate since on my

For no fault of AMAZON, the discs did not work.

Incidentally, if you have a phillips dvd installed on your computer, like Dell, be aware that only very good DVD DL discs, like the aforementioned, will work.

These are excellent and rarely get a bad disc

In other words, I believe many people are blaming the discs for the problems when in fact the problem is more likely something else.

I received these discs a few days ago and so far out of 16 attempted burns all but 4 have failed halfway through

I have used about 12 discs so far and I lost one in

I gave these discs a try to save a little money, but in the long run, they end up being more expensive per USABLE disc

so I feel in a position of authority to review these god-awful discs fairly.

I never do reviews, but these discs are such a waste of money, that i feel compelled to warn others.

I have to say I think these discs are wonderful!

Only 15 discs out of 50 are left, and none of them worked

The first disc crapped out on me at the layer break, but the other two that I've used have worked perfectly

BUY THEM AGAIN.I wasted 10+ discs trying to burn one dvd with Nero
