I'm looking for a local source of brand-name DVD+RW bulk media (no jewel cases, 25 or 50 pieces) at a reasonable price. I'm not going to buy a dual-media recorder because my "+ only" drive works just fine thanks, and + media appears to have some technical advantages too (like the DVD+RW discs erase in about 4 seconds). Can anyone local come close to prices at eCost or Amazon? Local shops do have acceptable prices on write-once media, but seem to be very high on RWs. Here are some quick checks of web sites to get started: BestBuy.com TDK 25pk for $85 CircuitCity.com NO bulk DVD+RW OfficeDepot.com Imation 25pk $99 OfficeMax.com NO bulk DVD+RW MicroCenter.com Imation 25pk $86, Memorex 25pk $80, TDK 25pk $75 eCost.com Imation 25pk $92, TDK 25pk $72, Verbatim 50pk $444 Amazon.com Memorex 25pk $39, TDK 25pk $78 OK, so apparently it's only Amazon (which I regard as evil) when it sells Memorex (which I regard as 2nd tier) that's a good deal. Tran Micro and General Nanosystems do not list media on their web sites. Still, any suggestions for local stores are greatly appreciated. -- Chris Schumann, Partner Third Wave Partnership, LLC Office 612-920-4364 722 W 66 St, PMB 302 Fax 612-677-3003 Minneapolis, MN 55423 _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
