Just bought me a lite-on dvd burner(couldn't resist the price:80.00 after rebates @ BB.
Anyhow..I was wondering if anyone has used any memorex dvd-r media in this particular burner?I bought a 50 pak of the media @ BB for 50.00 after instant rebate.From what reviews I've read on the burner it will burn just about any media.Is memorex a decent brand?

Should be okay. Stick to name brands. Avoid non-name or generics.

not gonna get to try the burner tonight..got a lemon
just sets their and flashes the yellow busy light. SOB
Its recgonized in the bios & device manager as a liteon ldw-411....from what little i've read it's toast...firmware upgrade does no good.
Liteon's 24 hr tech support SUCKS BTW.

I've had the phone to my ear for 45 minutes...still no answer..WTF
