are ritek dvd-r disk much better then princo dvd-r

for me nothing else will do Ritek G04 & G05 are very good (however ther are some low grade media even with this dye) & Ritek brand are grade A <> I use printables with G05 & never had a problem

the last 15 minites of the movie is no good and just freezes

This usually a sign of crappola media <> one tip is dont burn right to the edge of the DVD <> I make mine @ 4400 MB

Not heard a single good word for Princo, ever!

The reputation of Ritek is being dragged into the gutter by the amount of bad media carrying those codes.

Of course, what you can get at a sensible price depends on where you are - the only 100% certainty is that "made in Japan" is quality (and expensive, unless on special offer).

EVERY brand is better than Princo, they would have to be the lowest quaility DVDR's ever made All of the 1 spindle of the Princos 1x DVD-R that I bought almost 2 years ago are dead and unreadable now. Some where failing 6 months after being burnt. Stick with the Ritek and you wont have problems.

The only Princo I ever had that didn't spit up data bits later was the 1x DVD-RWs I bought long ago. Still use them in my settop DVD recorder (it only likes 1x, and I cannot find anything but 2x or 4x now).

to make it short, Princo is the worst you can get
