I use Phillips and Memorex media. I think both of those came from Big Lots. I paid $5.00 for 20 of them. I bought a couple packs. I have used, and reused, them several times with no problems. I use a LG burner. This is from hdparm: Model=HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH22NS50 I have some older imation CD media to. Those I have used for years. Those are CD-RW. Basically, I have use both kinds with no problems. I credit the really well made burner myself but . . . . it could be just blind luck since I just buy whatever is on sale.
