8.5 GB DVD-R media costs much higher than it's 4.7 GB variant.

You'll get an unbranded ones for around 80-100. But branded one's costs like hell. It varies from 150-500 per piece.

@vinyas: I haven't bought it yet. But was told by a couple of vendors here at hyderabad.

Even this 100 Rs for unbranded is costly for me. I'll go for two branded 4.7 GB discs (unless its a 9gb dvd movie).

Dude, DVD +/- R dual layer itself is priced above Rs. 100 for brands like moser baer, sony etc. There isn't a dual layer dvd that is priced below Rs.50, whether it is branded or non-branded.

i think here people are little confused..,,,

the rewritable DVD whether dual layer8gb.. or 4.7gb one.. is very high.

but single layered only writable DVD of 4.7 costs 12 or 15 Rs.. unbranded.. since i opted to buy dvd instead of 5-6Rs Cd,, so i know.. but when i asked for and 4.7Gb rewritable DVD then the cost was said to be 150Rs...

so i am talking that... dont be confused of and DVDr ----- DVDrw

You'll get a good quality one for 180-200. But I was offered an unbranded one for Rs. 100 per piece and Rs. 80 if I took 50. But i didn't go for it.

@harikatt: i'm not at all confused.

this is the correct scene in India , but with slight correction , i.e
Dual Layer DVD - 8.5 GB
DVD R - Rs. 100 to 200 (cheapest) (writable only once)

as this month Digit give 8.5gb DL DVD with the magazine so i thought that 8.5gb dvd are also cheap now a days ..

Harikatt, Noone here is confused. Your dealer is confusing you.

A Single layer DVD rewritable is not Rs.150, it's Rs.45 (sony/moser baer).

Dual layer DVD recordable is Rs.150 (sony/moserbaer)

Don't know how much DVD rewritable is.
