Good question. There are colored ones also. Red,Green,and Yellow i believe. Maybe there are more colors out?

I have HP (CMCMAGAM3) and Verbatim (MCC004) here. I have only used the HP's so far so until i do i cannot say. I haven't even opened the Verbatims yet

CDan might have the answer. He's pretty knowledgeable about LS and printable discs.

There isn't any colour DVD's as of yet, think they are meant to come out at the turn of the year.

As to the image quality, I haven't noticed any difference between the MBI, CMC and MCC discs I have used. Just my opinion though.

Yes, a Verbatim is still a Verbatim, Memorex a memorex, etc.

Well, I wish I knew what the good brands of inexpensive Lightscribe DVDs were--and by good, I mean the recording quality. I consider the Scribing quality secondary.

Verbatim. Or as a second choice, perhaps HP (-R for the HP).

Re: LightScribe DVD+R Media from Different Brands

cdrs make no difference they all print perfect.

for dvd verbs prints and burns the best of them all, avoid primeon as they give awfull results (both sides)

tdk and imation prints fine but burns worst than verbs, if u cant find verbs choose hp instread

version 1.0 discs takes more time but prints a lot better than 1.2 buy all u can if available.


if u buy verbs better choose cmc taiwan made than indian moser baers for burning data... (but indian made verbs prints a bit better)

only if taiyo yuden started to do lightscribe i would change verbatim LS.
