It would be nice if you specified the certified write speeds of the discs in question or provided a link.
Look here for info on the actual manufacturer of BenQ discs:
...long URL...click!

The DVD+Rs are Daxon media, which should be pretty good quality.

Not that it really matters... Check the videohelp link I provided above and do a search on the different types of media that they rebadge.

BenQ Canada is trying to get some friends of mine to bring in a container (roughly 1 million) of their DVDRs, claiming they are all made in Japan.... I sent my friend the link to videohelp's BenQ media section, and they decided it was a bad idea :wink:
