 My very old Sharp DV600 rejects the disc if it's burnt at 4X.  It load the disc if it's burnt at 2.4X but takes a long time, 30 seconds.  It plays fine until the last 15 minutes of the disc which becomes very jerky.  The disc plays fine in the Intital IDM-9520, burnt 2.4X or 4X.
 Works fine on Initial IDM-9520
 Does not work on Sharp DV-600

 I have been experimenting looking for some inexpensive DVD media and thought I would give the BenQ name a try.  I bought a 5 pack, and so far it's working good... no coasters!  These DVDs go on sale frequently... so you can pick em up for less then $1 per disc.

 Just under 35¢ per blank, all included, is a extra crispy sweet deal for such fine media. Transfer rate scan with Nero CD-DVD Speed is remarkably clean, that's all you need to know ;) Wait for futureshop $60/200 sale.

 Burns fine at 4x. Nero shows amazing DVD quality tests around 96-99! Very good compared to Ritek which gives me  90-93.

 White top with pink splash graphics.  14 out of 50 discs have impact/abrasion and dye smear damage.  Very poor quality control compared to Ricoh code discs with 2 out of 150 discs having defects.  The other Benq spindle, 50 DVD+Rs 4X, are 50 out of 50 defective!  I am going to refund that whole spindle.

 BenQ (formerly Acer brand) discs, actually made by Sony?  200 for $95 CAD, not bad at all.  Played fine on both my PC and my DVD player, which is 7 yrs old and very intolerant of DVD-Rs...  A great buy and no issues so far.
