For a number of months now Apple 2xDVD-R media has not been available on the UK Apple Store.
As I have a 2x Superdrive and the Apple Store site states the following :-
"A 2x SuperDrive writes to 4x media at 1x, so to obtain the highest performance from your 2x SuperDrive, we recommend that you continue using 2x DVD-R media just as you do today"
What are we supposed to do? Buy 4x DVD-R and have a much slower burn.

Apple stopped selling them here, too.
I'd suggest you buy third-party 2x media. And also, it appears that only some models of Pioneer DVD writers are affected by that 4x->1x bug: DVR-A03/103 and A04/104.

Why is there always money for war, but none for education?
