About those TDK which you say are made by Ritek. I have seen some made by CMC. I have also seen them made in Mexico by Mitsubishi Chemicals.

Never seen any Mitsubishi TDK's.. just CMC and Ritek's.

[BuddhaTB]

You guys should be right. I haven't paid much attention to CD-R media or CD-RW drives for a few months now, so I'm just going by what I remember.

BTW, is it just me or has there not been a Fuji media deal for a few weeks now?

Also, I hate how Best Buy has re-designed their online viewing of the weekly ad. There is no more pdf files to view of the ad. The new scans of the ad are poor and small. I was barely able to read the price breakdown of each product, like how much the rebates and instant savings were.

[Ian]

Maybe Fuji will finally come out with some 52x CD-R media.

I still have a 10% off coupon to use at Best Buy. I think that 80GB hard drive has my name on it.

Come on Ian,

Get the 120, It's only $20 more.

Well,

Here's what I know.

The Verbatims were made in Mexico
So were the TDK's

I am pretty sure that Mitsubishi Chemicals makes for Verbatim
So Mexican made TDK's must be made by Mitsubishi Chemicals.

???
how does that follow?

[aviationwiz]

The Verbatim disks and the TDK disks were both made in Mexico. As far as I know, Verbatim disks are made by Mitsubishi Chemicals. Since I have never seen any other sort of disk made in Mexico. I assumed that those TDK were also Mitsubishi Chemicals. I have also had some CMC TDK. Never any Ritek TDK though.

The rebate is a little too big for me. I'd do $40 in a sec, but $80... that makes me a little nervous. I've been dicked too many times.

I checked the TDK's today. All of them were made in Taiwan.
