I have a 1.5ghz 15" Powerbook w/ Superdrive. I have tons of movies on my computer that I need to get rid of. So I need to buy some packs of DVDs. I have heard that Ritek are the best brand. I searched for Ritex 8x ones, and have found so many different kinds. What is the main type of Ritec DVD-r that I should look for, just to copy movies, nothing too special. So should I get the G04 or G05's? thanks

Don't believe the hype... Personally, I just buy Apple media: Very reliable. I can't be bothered with mediocre media, even if it costs a few bux less.

Ok, not I have heard, I think that Ritek are the best. Why would anybody in their right mind spend 15$ for 5 blank dvds, when you can get a 50 pack of Ritek for 30 bucks. My questions still stands, which kind. Any help would be appreciated greatly.
