I know this probably isn't the place to post this but I know the veterans watch
this forms.

Has anyone seen 4X DVD-R media, I can't find any where.
if you know where I can find some you post a link please, thanks

I can't find any at the moment either, then again since i don't have a 4x writer i'm not to concerned. Wait a month or two and they will start popping up, but expect to pay a premium price for them.

I think the discs we have are capable of burning at 4X.....like the ritekg03s.

I read i think...in afterdawn.com somewhere of 4X discs that had to be labelled as 2X for some legal reasons...whatever it was.

Thing is even if you buy those you won't know if those are compatible or not so why are you so anxious when the burner for it isn't even out yet?

Some people claimed 4x compatable disk WAY before there was even a standard to test by, basicly they lied. The real 4x disk should be hitting stores any time now if not even as we speak.

@jeo: Ritekg03 are not capable of 4x burning. The posting was made by someone who didn't understand the result Nero reported :) (EDIT I just saw that you were the one...)

The 4x discs which are labeled as 2x are based on a Princo dye and therefore are likely to be crap media.

Mitsubishi has promised some time ago to have 4x media when the first burner arrives. This would mean *now*
