Now I bought Memorex -R media, know Memorex is high quality. I know you guys highly reccomend Ridata, but I should be ok with the Memorex right? I mean there +R's work great in my PS2 and the -R work now too, so if it' aint broken don't fix it right, or not?

We recommend Ritek media simply cause of its dark purple surface and Its better for the laser. If the dye is darker = easier for the laser to read, which also = less wear on the laser. This is what we recommend for game back ups. For DVD back ups, most DVD media is ok. I personally use Ritek for everything.
