MID does not matter which varies from AML 001 to VDSPMSAB 001, it's the quality that does. They burn great at 8x, wanna see? It may not be impressive but it's good for the money you paid.

For an 8x burn that scan is trash. I hope that isn't one of the better scans.

the mid indicates the quality... but if you think AML is

decent quality media
then you should have been to staples this week. i think they are less than quality media but i did pick up 300 of them for $10... 6-50 pk@$4.94 with $3 ink coupons each and a $2 rewards refund.

Re: 200 dvd+r for 29.99+10 free 8x dvd-r Free Shipping

it's sad how these "thetechgeek.com" guys are spamming forums with their so-called deals on crap quality media.

Regular price is 36.00, I was about to buy 100 for 17.99 until I saw this recently.
Depending on the quality, some may see 8x some 12x

You get Free 10PK DVD-R Velocity 8x blank media with every purcahse as well!!! What a good way to says thank for buying from them. »www.thetechgeek.com/content/prod···&cid=117
Some may see 8x some 12x depending on the type of burner you use.

I dunno why you guys base your opinions on a few bad apples. They work well for me, ya don't have any experience on burning media. MEDIA ID is MEDIA ID 001??? LOL. Most of ya are clueless, it's either AML 001-000 or
VDSPMSAB 001-000
If you know how to hack firmware even the crappiest media will burn beautifully. Afer you update your firmware, always reboot your computer. Don't burn immediately, you will coaster regardless.
I am in love with media.

You guys either hate or love me, I guess I'm getting the attention I need to make me famous. I maybe the next Einstein. First I am ridiculed, then there is an outraged, finally it is accepted that I am correct.
If you found a better deal then good for you but what about those who haven't? What's the point of bashing a messenger or a dead horse? Give it a rest guys, your making me look bad.

You may think I work for them, I DO NOT. Please don't make any stupid assumption just because you think so. Can you prove that I work for them? All this conspiracy theory is silly. *roll eyes*
If you think you are so good or are above others, why don't you give out your so called trash media to homeless person around you or shipped it out for free? lol. I guess you like insult others for fun? Too much free time?

Dee-27 thats a problem with this person, if u try and keep it friendly, she starts saying we are racists and then she will pm hateful pms to u. Sure she is trying to save someone some money but when you ask for proof on the media quality she posts garbage and when people tell her what to set here scans at, she ignores them.

sugarmommyst...im sure people do appriciated ur post on trying to save money, but if u do a search on here, you will see that posts of media quality scans of the stuff u are posting are more bad then good. If you cant handle critisizum (spelling error), then dont post...Im not bad mouthing u, just stating a point. I have had people say things about what I post, but it doesnt bother me.

As mentioned above it is VDS. . .ect. Point is that it is cheap quality Chinese-made media. 10:1 the whining wench will try to pull the race card again after that comment. That and I bet I get a nasty PM from her.
