Which brand did this "TYG02" disc come from?

Take a guess :P


keep in mind that the disc is a little scratched/dirty so the PIF total would likely be much lower if it was pristine

Maxell? Or is it a cheap-o brand one would not normally associate with TY?

So...fake MID? Not a bad burn, considering...I need some cheap-o DVDs for when I burn discs for friends...something like this would be usefull if it could be burned at 16x...

Of course, I don't care if it lasts or not...

MY stuffs on MCC/real TYs :)

Yeah, fake. And it's likely it won't fair half bad in the long run, because A Grade Optodisc has a decent track record for lifespan. I think it's Optodisc's 8X DVD-R got either "+" or "++" for climatic stability in C'ts tests.
