Maxell Dvd-Rw Rewritable Disc, 4.7 Gb, 2x, Spindle, Gold, 15/pack

I bought this same Maxell DVD-RW spindle through Amazon 2 years ago. After many years of trying different brands, I finally had blank DVDs that my computers did not reject. This is a "Thank God!" product. I had zero problems with any of the 15 disks. No losses. All of them work perfectly. Videos, movies, and music are top notch. Saving documents, various file types, and digital art are perfect. I love being able to write, edit, delete, reformat, and use these disks for all my disk storage needs. I have only had one thing I could not use one of these DVD disks for -- to copy an embroidery program which happened to require use of a CD not a DVD. It was very type specific. That happens. I just used the last one about 2 months ago. I had saved my 2012 Amazon packing slip for these disks so that I would be able to buy exactly the same ones again. I'm so delighted Amazon still carries these Maxell 635117 4.7 GB Rewritable DVD-RW 15 pack spindles. The price being even lower now is a winner, too. If you've had trouble recording to DVDs on your computer or your just looking for a really good rewritable DVD, I highly recommend this particular product by Maxell.

Just what I needed. Works well to record from VHS to DVD.

I love Maxell media and have been using it for decades - everything from cassette tape to Reel-to-Reel tape. First time using the DVD-RW's, and they so far are every bit as good and comparable to other major-brand discs. My only gripe (and this is purely my fault for not noticing prior to purchase) is this is 2X speed media. It takes about 28 minutes to burn a full DVD using these blanks. Not a big deal for what I am using them for, but that is a huge time difference from 4X DVD-R's (14 minutes) and 8X speed DVD-RW's (about 8 minutes) that I am accustomed to using the past several years. Again, no issues with the quality, and the price is excellent. The "2X" is visible in the picture, but the speed is not mentioned anywhere in the title or the product description that I could see. If you want inexpensive, quality blank DVDs that can be used over and over again, these are a great choice. If you want to spit out multiple copies of whatever it is that you are burning, or do any type of high volume or time intensive work, these are not for you. This review is intended to highlight the (nearly hidden) fact that these are 2X recording speed DVD-RW discs.

It's great to be able to reformat (thus erase) DVDs since I do a LOT of recording of shows from my cable (ATT uVerse) TV that I can bring over to my girlfriend's house to watch with her, since she doesn't have some of the pay stations that I have at my home. I've started writing the names of the shows that I record on index cards that I place in the DVD sleeve along with the corresponding DVD so that, after we watch the recorded shows on a DVD I take it back home and (after re-formatting it) I can record some new shows on it (and write on a new index card) to later bring over to her home and watch THOSE shows with her. (she has Comcast) I wish that I had bought RW discs sooner as I have used up a LOT of regular DVDs that I have recorded on in the past--only 10% being "keepers" that I have added to my personal collection. I have both a DVR (from ATT) as well as a Sanyo VHS/DVD player recorder that is connected to my DVR so I can both record shows that are saved on my DVR OR record shows direct from my TV to a DVD R or RW. QUESTION: What would be a TV transmission that would require me to first format your RW disc in VR mode (thus rendering it CPRM one-time-record-only) compatible? My Sanyo VCR mentions in the owner's manual that I must make a DVD-RW CPRM compatible before recording certain shows (or channels?) but, for the life of me, I don't know what type of show or channel that the manual refers to, and I have called Sanyo several times and NO ONE seems to know! I have found that--whether I format the disc in Video or VR mode, I STILL cannot record (direct to DVD disc) certain channels like HBO or Starz (paid subscription channels) or non-subscription channels like the National Geographic Channel (NG and NGW) and some others. WHAT is a channel that I would have to use a CPRM compatible disc for in order to record it? I can't find even ONE!!!

Work fine

Perfect. Cant get these in stores anymore.

Great!

I write a great deal, most of the time in fact and I do quite a lot of backups and storing my files. I'm paranoid about losing stuff and always store on more than one media. I've had great success with TDK +R DVDs for this task without any issues. Then, I made the mistake of purchasing verbatim -R to do the same thing and that was a total disaster. (See separate review.) Thus, I needed to purchase replacement DVDs and I chose these. I've used them twice so far for storing files and opening and changing them without issues. So far, so good. Should this change I will update this review, but so far, I liked these. They're doing what they're supposed to do for me, but I now realize that DVDs unlike CDs are more apt to be manufactured and burned for consume use with lots of errors, ie defects so that when we get them they don't work as they should. Overall, a great DVD for storing and backing up documents for me. I don't know about movies, because I don't use them for that.
