Must have If You have A Sony DVD Video Recorder

2008-04-14
I bought a Sony DVD Video Recorder for a Christmas present. These are the only ones that work well with the recorder.

Nearly impossible to unwrap,,,

2008-03-24
OK, so this product works but after ordering dozens of these for a week of training sessions we're going to be holding I could not possibly imagine how difficult it was going to be to unwrap these discs.

These 3 packs are actually 3 single packs, each one individually wrapped, then all 3 glued together somehow, then all 3 wrapped AGAIN, and best I can tell, wrapped a 3rd time.

This isn't your standard shrink wrap either, you NEED a knife or other sharp object to cut through 1 layer, you can't pull it apart or get ahold of it in any other way.

As you unwrap layer after layer of course it all falls to pieces, statically charged pieces that stick to your hands, your clothes, your desk, the floor- anything... It literally takes over 2 minutes to unwrap each 3 pack, and probably another 2 minutes to clean up the mess it makes.

I would hope there's some other company that makes these because I will never order them again. Stay clear of them at all costs- especially if it's a big order.

I thought maybe I just had a couple of poorly packed ones, but I ordered/bought more than 20 of these and every one has been the same issue.

got it right this time

Buy a sony dvd for your camera and you wont go wrong. I previously bought another brand and was very disappointed. I was not able to use any of the 10 dvds inside the pack.

Amazon price much lower than WalMart

This is the recommended media for my new camcorder. Some folks have experienced problems using other brands, so I stuck with the manufacturer recommendations. Besides, I bought these mini-DVD's at Amazon for less than the cheaper brands cost at Wal-Mart.

The Best DVD's

2008-01-06
I bought a Sony Camcorder and they always want you to use their product, so I ordered these DVD's and they're better than the other brands. The other brands didn't come in a case and when I went to Europe I took lots of movies. I'd hate it if they got scratched. Either RW or R is good.

great buy

Recorded Video Looks Great On My TV

2008-05-25
We recorded onto these disks and the video looks great. It doesn't take up space like the larger disks and works great for my new camcorder. It was easy to record to and compatible with my computer and dvd player. I bought two 3 packs.

Warning: Not compatible with SONY Handycams 100-301

I was disappointed the disks did not work in the earlier Handycams. It would be helpful to customers to highlight this fact in the product information.

Great DVD+RW, but expect to spend a lot of time getting them out of the package! :(

I agree with the previous reviewer. These DVD+RW disks are "the Dickens" to unwrap. I thought I could just cut along the edge and remove the disk, but NOOOOO, the plastic wrapping it seems was applied with heat to the 3 individual disk containers, which then again were shrink-wrapped with another layer of plastic. During the process, the plastic's molecular structure must have "affinitized" with the other layers of plastic covering, because instead of peeling the covering off in one piece of plastic, the plastic covering (first the 3-pack covering which covers all 3 disks) tears off in little pieces (not as a whole plastic covering), and then the individual disks themselves are shrink-wrapped, and they, too, do the same think. Talk about getting your consumers frustrated. These do work the best in my Sony HDR-UX10 and I give them 5 stars for performance and quality, but give them 1 star for the inconvenience of unwrapping the product. Just another unnecessary headache that Sony has created for its customers.
