Re: A DVD cost comparison question
The double layered ones are twice as expensive and also you need to make sure your burner can do that. Now all burners won't do double density so this is really important to check. If your manual says double you will be good to go but they are expensive so plan on that. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 2/13/2009 at 3:39 PM Donald L.
