Reviewed by Ljpp MID: TYG03 Media type: DVD-R Scanning drive: LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1653S Selected scan speed: 4x Manufacturer website: http://www.t-yuden.com/ User comment: This is unbranded bulk media manufactured by the famous Taiyo Yuden. Based on the small test batch we received, the quality does not seem to be as good as various branded media by Taiyo. The disc does burn nicely to 16x, but shows an increased level of PIE from the beginning to the end and also slightly increased amount of PIF at the very end of the disc. If you need large amounts of media and can get these bulk discs cheap, these might be a good choice, but otherwise I would go for the branded premium quality Taiyo Yuden media. Pure data:
