Best Buy has a 100 pack of DVD-/+R for $22 bucks through today. Are these any good quality? I've been using Verbatim, and if the Sony discs are no good or sold out, I'll pick up more Verbatims, but they're $32 for 50 discs. Suggestions?

I have always used a variety of discs, never just sticking to one brand, for all my burning needs.

All manufacturers put out the odd dud batch, even Verbatim.

Buy them, if you like the price.

Thanks for filling me in. I'm going down there later to pick some up

EDIT: I've used sony before for burning. Seems to work well for me

You should use Taiyo Yudens...

well I got fujifilm dvd-r 15 pack for 4bucks from circuit city(and not online). Not sure if you should buy the 100pk thing, but it seems like a good deal

I agree Taiyo Yudens are all I use. They might cost a bit more, but I've never had any problems with them. How can you nibble about paying only $0.10 more per disc?

Odd thing I read on another forum.... They said that the Taiyo Yudens didn't work as well on the gamecube. Anybody confirm/deny this story? I have a gamecube, but its laser is so pathetic that it has problem reading any brand.
