Memorex 8.5GB DL DVD+R - 50 Pack Spindle, 8X Speed Review

After I ran out of all my Memorex 2.4x DVD+R DL discs I went to Revain to buy new discs. I should have heeded the warnings here, but I didn't. I also have a small stack of coasters. When I called Memorex customer service I was met by a representative who didn't speak English well enough to understand everything he was saying, but the gist of the call was that I had screwed up 5 discs from the start. Stack, he wanted me to burn 5 from the middle and 5 from the bottom. Now I have to burn a total…
