4 out of 5 stars Watershield not so great   January 6, 2008
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I recently bought these discs as I had tried discs that had no waterproofing and found that if they ever get wet that the ink gets wet again and smudges. Having bought these Taiyo Yuden discs I figured that they would be great since they don't smudge. However I found that they have some flaws when being printed on, such as spots that look like cracks under the disc surface, they don't accept ink on the edges, and most importantly you should NEVER touch the printed area on the disc anyway. The way they are shielded I discovered that they smudge, and if they get wet you will get a residue, and if you try to wipe anything off, even with something gentle like a tissue or maybe a cloth the waterproofing scratches, in short leaving you with a printed side that seems to be more delicate than the side that holds data. After all what do you prefer, a disc that can't get wet, or a disc that can't really even be touched without permanently looking bad. Therefore I cannot say that I am pleased with the feature on these discs offering waterproofing. However so far I have had no issues burning on them. so they get 4 stars. Just know what you are buying first.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely top of the line in every respect   August 2, 2007

Taiyo Yuden has the reputation of being a premiere blank disc manufacturer, and it is well deserved. I've never had one of their discs fail to burn.

But the exciting thing about this particular disc is the glossy Watershield surface. Simply put, if you start with a quality, high-resolution image and print with a high-resolution consumer printer [I use an Epson R260], you will be amazed at the image that you'll see on the disc. It looks in every way completely professional. Plus, they give you maximum print area... onto the hub. And a big bonus is that, while some manufacturers recommend that you let the ink dry for 24-hours before handling or playing their discs, these dry super fast. Given that temperature, humidity and ink type will affect drying times, I won't promise a specific time frame. However, living in coastal California with moderate temps and humidity, I've handled these discs after an hour or so and they were ready to go.

The only downside to Taiyo Yuden discs is that they come at somewhat of a premium price. So, I don't use them for every application. But when I want to impress someone or when I want to give them the very best that is available to me, I ALWAYS burn to Taiyo Yuden Watershield.
