If the DVD you're burning is longer than an hour, you really need to use those big 8.5GB discs. While Verbatim is a little more expensive than some of the competition, I haven't had a single issue with them, while reviewers of other similar (and cheaper) products have complained of a lot of crashes. You get what you pay for.
