DVD-R Apple

[Streetcleaner]

Hi!

can somebody tell me if these apple dvd-r are compatible with Pioneer A 03? I have read in this forum that it would be Pioneer DVD-R`s in Apple Packages is that true?

yep, I have that writer and media is fine!

[MickeyNBK]

and yes the media is actually rebraded pioneers, if you lay them face down side by side they are exactly the same and both list that they are made in singapore.

I forgot to add that they also have the same numbering scheme around the hub of the disc.

... and they are much cheaper

at least in Germany.
5 pcs. 33.64 EUR while Pioneer original is 12 EUR each.

BTW. who are the rippers I guess the reseller ...

I think Apple is selling them cheaper because they are trying to promote their computers with DVD capabilities.

Mike,

Your pioneer's are very cheap but still only same price as Apple. Do you sell cheap Apple Media? £4.70 UK is price of Apple media which is the same as you're Pioneers. I use FWS for my own personal use at £1.80 but they are not too good on ps2 so I have to use Apple or Pioneer.

Yes i know this retailer who sells this DVD-r for 1.80 GBP but they aren`t sending to Germany anymore i was very upset about this.
So i have ordered some DVD-R from www.cdrecordable.com has somebody experience with the quality of them?

Where are you ordering from? If in uk then goto apple website and order 11 packs of five. Postage is free on orders over £200 so they work out at £4.70 each. I actually use the 'fws' for myself and apple for others.

Hi Sundancer!

i will write in English so that everynody can read this.
I have ordered mine at www.apple.de, you can call them at a 0800 (FREE!) phone number nad they are very nice you can buy per sending cheque, transfering money or credit card. Credit card is the fastest payment so i have chosen this.
