hmmm

spindle of 50 will set you back a bit, it's worth trying out discs individually if you want to experiment. Otherwise go for Traxdata/TDK/Verbatim etc.

Where are you located? might be able to point you to a better source for your media.

try www.pricewatch.com or www.buy.com for some good deals on DVD-R , never gone through that site personally (UK) but people like A03 recommend them so I take his word for it.

Without pointing out the obvious, buying in bulk doesn't mean buying 100 discs. You could perhaps buy 10 for the time being and save for the rest at a later date.

I used a princo DVD-R to back up my Medal of Honour game, I experienced a lot of skipping through out the game. If you can go for another brand of media like the TDKs or Verbatim, just my opinion.

i agree with paul princo r ok as long as your laser is good
older ps2 will struggle for sure
this was the older versions of princo disk
so maybe there newer disks will b better
if u can find traxdata dvdr they r cheap and 100% reliable
