 "Premium" means "average" in non-Sony speak June 8, 2006

Don't be fooled, "premium" means "average consumer grade" in non-Sony speak. But that being said, it's a perfectly fine tape for taping your kids at the local park or a ball game.
The main difference is that consumer tape isn't designed for archival storage, so you may experience more drop-outs or tape delaminating as it gets older.

The best MiniDV cassettes out there July 9, 2006

This is the best MiniDV tape you can get in the market. It gave me better results than TDK, JVC, etc. I would surely recommend it to you
Works well with HDV Camcorders September 29, 2006

Sony tapes work well with the new HDV camcorders that record in high definition. Previously, I was able to use the cheaper TDK, Fuji, Maxell tapes with my old Sony DV camcorder without problems but these tapes gave dropouts while shooting in high definition. On the other hand, using the higher quality Sony or Panasonic tapes work just fine for HDV. These tapes work and are 1/4 the price of the specialized HDV tapes that Sony offers. The only benefit to spending more for the Sony HDV tapes are longevity.
Fine tapes April 15, 2007

The information on the item description is wrong, which can be a little confusing. It says these tapes are Sony DVM60PRL, but they ARE NOT! They are Sony DVM60PR3! This is why I gave it a lower than five star rating. I just got these in the mail so haven't tried them yet. Shipping spead was fine.
That said, I did some quick online research and found a store that sells these (DVM60PR3). Here's what the site says: "These tapes are the same as the Sony DVM 60 PRL(Blue- wrapper.) They [the PRL's] are packaged for North America. The (Orange-wrapper)Sony DVM 60PR3 are made overseas for Europe and until recently were less expensive. We gurantee these are the same tapes and quality."
SO these must be the same tapes as the PRLs. That would mean they are a fine purchase. But the item description is still misrepresenting the product.
