There are other methods to tell including hub serial numbers.
"16x are as good as 8x,
but usually only when burned at 12x
the + is better than the -, but they're both supposedly good.
Media ID:
Verbatim 8x -R = MCC 02RG20
Verbatim 16x +R = MCC-004-00
Verbatim -R (16x?) = MCC 03RG20"
I guess DD is of the opinion Moser Baer Verbatim is better than Prodisc Verbatim (I do not share that opinion, but he does test more media than I do on a wider variety of burners). Regardless, he obviosly feels (as I do) that CMC Verbatim is better than either.
