Product delivered the results I was expecting. The burn time may be a little slow, but you must also take into consideration that the data being burned is twice the amount of a normal DVD. I had no problems with any of the discs in this pack. Overall, I would definitely recommend these to anyone who is looking to purchase DL DVD's.

Until now I had used Sony brand DVD+R DL's. Rarely did I have a problem but they are more expensive - or were. These DVD's flat out are not reliable. I have a very good Sony DVD burner (DRU-830A) and two very good DVD players certified to play DL DVD's. More often than not, these DVD's cause both players to skip or stop. These are just too expensive to run the risk of a faulty burn. I'm going back to the Sony brand. Might try Verbatim. This is Memorex's first try at DL technology and Sony was the only brand available until just recently. Wish I could get my money back but I've wasted half the pack trying to do burns that failed on playback. The Sony DVD recorder which burned them can play them fine but not a Sony DVD player certified to play them. A Sony DVD+R DL recorded today on same hardware is fine I might add.

    I'm told these are going away in favor of Blue Ray.
    The 8+ gig is more than sufficient for most of your archiving, and you don't have to have an expensive BlueRay burner.

              • Q:

                How would I know if the dvd drive on my laptop will record onto a double layer dvd? It records on the regular 4.7gb dvds.

                • A:

                  The best way is to test the dvd to see if it will write. If your burner records on regular single layer dvd+r, then it should work.

                  I received your inquiry through the Question & Answer feature of Staples.com and wanted to respond to you directly. Because your inquiry is specific in nature (playback will depend on the make and model of your DVD player) it would be best resolved by a member of our customer service team. They will be glad to help with your question. You may contact them online at http://www.staples.com/sbd/content/help/contact/index.html or by phone at 1-800-3STAPLE (1-800-378-2753).

                • A:

                  You can't really give this question a simple "yes" or "no" answer. They will play in most if not all recent DVD players. I have a 10 year old Toshiba player that won't play any burned DVDs, single or double layer. Playback may be inconsistent in some players, depending on how the disc was burned. I guess I can give your question a "yes" answer, with the above caveats.

                  I have had no issues using a properly burned DVD DL in standard DVD players. The key is "properly burned". Since I use these to back up my commercial DVD's, I always do a bit-for-bit verification of every copy. Takes twice as long, of course, worth the peace of mind!

                  A:

                  Yes, in fact, a lot of DVD's (such as a television series on DVD) are burned on Dual Layer DVD's. The only difference between these and a standard DVD is the amount of data that can be stored on the DVD.

                  I have been able to play these DVDs on the standard DVD player that I have in my daughter's room - it is a small inexpensive one not Blue ray compatible.

                  If by standard you mean players that read single-layer DVDs, of course. They even play in Bluray players. As far as I know, DVD players have always been able to play either single- or double-layer DVDs.
