Update January, 2008.
As I note in some of the commentary, things can change a lot in two years. It's entirely possible that the "same product" that I had such bad experience with two years ago, is actually very different today. While I avoid TDK products because they burned me with poor quality, users seeking cost-effective and reliable media would probably be better off giving more weight to more recent reviews (which might better reflect whatever they are currently putting in this package) and/or a site that tracks media quality, such as http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm (although they don't seem to be updating that one any more), where among many other details you can find that TDK-branded packages have included media actually manufactured by TDK, CMC, Moser Baer, and Philips.
My original review follows. FYI, I have no interest in TDK or any other media mfr other than as a user.
------------------------
These disks are not made by TDK (they only make -R type) they are rebranded trash from CMC. I had 15% with obvious, naked-eye visible defects (delaminations and voids in the dye layer) and for the "good" ones needed to burn at a sluggish 4X to get a decent quality of burn. Having burned more than 1000 disks using various brands, I assure you - these are not a bargain, they are garbage. Unless, of course, you burn at slow speeds and don't ever use the outer 20% of a disk.
UPDATE [late 2006]: I have been re-reviewing the burn quality of the disks that I did use. I am now finding hundreds of thousands of parity errors on every TDK disk (vs a typical 2 to 4 thousand on good disks e.g. Sony). THESE ARE WITHOUT DOUBT THE WORST DVD MEDIA I HAVE EVER USED. ANYONE WHO ENTRUSTS THEIR DATA TO THIS GARBAGE IS DOOMED TO DISASTER IF THEY EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO READ THE DATA IN AS LITTLE AS A YEAR OR TWO.
 Great Buy November 30, 2005

I have purchased a 50 pack of these in the past. I backed up my entire dvd/mp3/data collection onto about 40 of these discs. All work as intended (knock on wood). Great value for the price. Great quality.
I cannot attest to their DVD playback as I do not use them for movies, but for strictly data, A+.
TDKs are great! December 28, 2006

Sorry to all who think these are bad, but I have had more success with these (both 16x and 8x) than any other, and I've probably burned 200 with TDK. Memorex are the ones that are bad. Maybe the people who have had bad time with these need a firmware update, or have an old burner (slow burners never seem to work well with high-speed discs). Seriously, TDK are the best!
very dependable - error free November 9, 2006

Nice disks - bad package/delivery November 15, 2006

I have almost 150 of these disks - very few coasters. I would definitely recommend these disks.
However, the 100pk arrived in a bad shape - the box was broken by the time it reached me.
