Gonna do some B&Ps for some DVD-A's.  What is the best brand to get?  Does Fuji still own?  thanks

make sure you get dvd-r's that are certified for 4x burning, especially if those discs are headed my way!

Never had a single bad burn with a Fuji, which is fuckin' incredible. I've been through at least 50 or so discs with Fuji, and each one worked just fine. The only bad burn I ever had was the first disc I made when I got the recorder, and that was the Verbatim that came in the box.

I just wish CDs had this track record when they first came out!

I've been burning DVD"s since 09/00. I've never really had a problem with any brand, other then some of the newer Verbatims. my drive doesn't seem to like them (Pioneer A03).
Sony, TDK, Fuji, Verbatim are all pretty reliable.
