Memorex 32025541 4x DVD+RW 25 Pack Spindle

I have purchased several hundred Memorex DVD+RW discs in the past few years and while I have had an occasional coaster most of the discs worked quite well on the Samsung DVD recorders (two different models) that I have used. My recent order of two 25-disc spindles resulted in my receiving two spindles of Memorex DVD+RWs with a Memorex label that was not the same that has been used on previously received spindles (the label on the spindle was of a different design as was the imprinted design on each disc). The discs looked and felt different. I tried formatting 10 of these discs on both of the DVD recorders and neither of the recorders would work with the DVDs. The DVDs seem to be a completely different manufacture than the discs of the Memorex brand previously putchased. What can I say other than buyer beware. You can assume a certain quality from a brand name and then all of a sudden it is gone.

This update on my comments is dated 1/10/2011.

I notice that the current Amazon.com product description, for these discs, has been changed to say that the discs are "for newer DVD+R/+RW drives". Make sure you have a newer drive (whatever that means) before you purchase these discs.

Any of the reviews, written before mid-2009, (including the "Most Helpful Favorable Review" written 2004,and the ""Most Helpful Critical Review" written 2005) are referring to a quite different DVD+RW than the DVD+RW that is now being sold. My review states that the quality of the DVDs changed at some point in mid-2009. If you read the reviews after mine you will see that there are a number of negative reviews with specificity and they are often followed by good reviews that say things like "I purchased these DVDs and they are great". Maybe these are the people that have newer drives or maybe they have an incentive to write good things about products. I am suggessting that, if you have an older drive, buy these DVDs with caution or do not buy them at all.

Purchased these to use for transferring VHS to DVD using Roxio Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 and they have performed flawlessly. Have had no problems with formatting, etc. I would buy them again in a heartbeat. They aren't the cheapest, but they aren't the most expensive, either. Good value for a decent price.

I have used Memorex DVD+RW disks for years, & for those who know they seem to have changed something besides the packaging & appearance of the Disks themselves. The old model " I Presume " had dots on the label side of the disk, performed flawslessly on several Brands of DVD Recorders that I own, but this new, I'm guessing more cheaply produced disk has numerous editing & playback glitches. I bought a spindle of these at Radio Shack, & suffered hours of RE-Recording & editing. I returned to the store & purchased a pre-opened marked down 24 pack of the old style, that I had passed on previously & VIOLA! Not a Hiccup. Now even if I try to order the old style, guess what they send me!

This item has proved to be very problematic. Half of the disks burned so far have become coasters!

I 've been using Memorex +RW and Maxell +R for a long time and didn't have all these problems.

Either I got a bad batch or the quality is very poor.

Want Memorex 32025541 4x DVD+RW 25 Pack Spindle Discount?

I've done a LOT of burning in my time. CD/DVD never really a problem, 100's of discs with only a handful of coasters, and most of them were from first generation cd burners and beginners error (over 10 years ago). Well, let me tell you... want some junk? You've come to the right place. Coaster city and sometimes you get lucky and the disc burns only to fail in the lightscribe burn, so you only have a partial lightscribe image. Woohoo. I'm a tech savy guy that's been on the net and messing with this kind of stuff for a long time... you know how many reviews I've written? NONE... That's just how strongly I am against you wasting your money on this crap. *woooo woooo* BEWARE!
