The Staples brand discs are likely CMC for both -R and +R. They also have shipped MBI and Fujifilm, but those ID's haven't shown up in the 50 disc spindles yet according to the media database on videohelp.com. I ordered a couple spindles this morning. We'll see what they ship for sure on Tuesday.

I received a couple spindles (50 pack) of the DVD+R Staples media. It's 8x CMC (CMC MAG E01). Seems to be ok.

Ditto! Mine burn at 99% quality in the 1640! 109 was my poorest burn in quality!
The CMC beat the Maxell MIJ in quality as well as the Pro 01 MIT!
Checking the TY MIJ Sunday to see if it can do well against the CMC.
So far this is a true bargain at $7.99!
