RICOH DVD Media

[lugesm]

I have a little utility which identifies the true manufacturer of a DVD regardless of the brand name. I have found that both Sony and Memorex DVD+R and DVD+RW are actually manufactured by RICOH.

When I check prices on "unmarked" RICOH DVD media I find that they are considerably more expensive than other brands, a fact that is probably reflected in the prices for Memorex and Sony blank DVDs.

Is there any significant quality difference in the RICOH media to justify such a higher price?

Thanks for your comments.
