    Princo, Ritek. Never a coaster, but just as important, no incompatible players yet, no returns.

    Now *I’m echoing! After submitting a post, the window stays at the “compose” page, so it’s hard to know if the message posted.
    Usually it goes back to the forum page. I guess I’ll repeat this to Eric, the systems guy.

    WOW, RITEK….. super ghetto.. LOL.

    I’m glad to hear that ’cause I have 2000 RITEK’s sitting here and I had no idea what to do with them.. they never worked for me
    : (
    Well, if you guys say it’s my burner then I’ll go get another one today.

    Which one…? The $189 LAcie external Lacie that they sell at the APPLE STORE?

    Is there an internal SUPERDRIVE replacement that I should buy?

    Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by “super ghetto”, they either work good or they don’t. An acquaintance whose company burns tens of thousands of DVDs a year
    uses Princo Ritek and Prodisk. I’ve never used Prodisk, but he swears by them.

    [Ed] ” An acquaintance whose company burns tens of thousands of DVDs a year uses Princo Ritek and Prodisk. I’ve never used Prodisk, but he swears by them.”

    I’m not sure about this, but I think that Princo & Prodisk are now both owned by Ritek.

    FWIW, I’ve been using Ritek for maybe a year & a half, with perhaps 3 or 4 returns out of a few hundred disks.

    I use Phillips. So far, no bad burns. I am using a PC though with a Sony DVD-+RW burner.
    Phillips created the disc technology, so who better then them?
