What is the failure rate of your burns with these DVDs?

If you have zero manufacturing defects and zero burn failures then it
is impressive.

Why so? You can get 4x ritek discs for £20 for 100. You'd be hard pushed
to find better discs, imo. I used to be a verbatim man, but after
experiencing read errors on discs written only 2 or 3 years ago...

You won't know if the Riteks suffer from this same problem for another
2 or 3 years, right? It's also important to remember that Verbatim
isn't a manufacturer, but a vendor. Verbatim-labeled discs are made
by whoever won the most recent contract (including Ritek).

Ritek used to make awful CDRs - some of the worst available - but I
understand their quality is better on DVDs. Haven't tried them
myself, though.
