As corny said above - if your spending the cash on DL discs don't buy anything other than Verbatim DL's - they are the only reliable ones out there - even Ritek's don't have a good reputation.....
Lucky you ! Ours has stuck at 97p a litre ($7.50ish a gallon) ever since the big one hit New Orleans...... just another excuse to push it over the ?1 a litre mark here
I hope anyone living nearby gets off light tho........
