Best place to purchase media

Post by SpaceBooger »

I need to order some more CDRs and DVD-Rs. I usually get them from tigerdirect, but where do you guys get them? Maybe I can get a better price somewhere else.

I've been using <a href="http://www.american-digital.com/">Am-Dig</a> for years. I always get the unbranded Taiyo Yuden stuff. It's the best.

Tapewarehouse/Tapeonline are my preferred, but if I have to I will go to Best Buy.

I usually get my stuff from MicroCenter (if you have one close) or I just order from TigerDirect or Newegg.

I get my DVD+R's from Costco. regular price for 100 printable DVD5's is $29.99, less when I can catch them on sale or with their semi-annual coupons. I don't have a special place to get CD-R's, but Costco has a 100 pack for around $18 or so (I don't buy them that often.)

Supermediastore.com / Meritline.com. I've seen good deals at Newegg and Microcenter before, but those are my go-tos.

Taiyo Yudens ONLY, DVD+R is better for archival than DVD-R.
