I wonder what Verbatim is up to.... they've changed radically as a business in the last 2 weeks :o
Punch Cards -> Paper Tape -> Tape Drive -> 8" Floppy Diskette -> 5 1/4" Floppy Diskette -> 3 1/2" "Flippy" Diskette -> CD-R -> DVD±R -> BD-R

Well, for one thing, their pricing has dropped almost 50%, and their business goals seem to have switched from professional to consumer. It may seem like just lower prices to the average consumer, but speaking as someone with a lot of ties to both Verbatim, and professional media markets, I'm a little concerned as to what the final outcome might be.

Although, it may just be Verbatim trying to dump product in anticipation of Dual Layer media taking over :lol:
