Default where to buy DVD-R media?

just got a DVD writer (finally!) and wanna get some discs...

preferably a large spindle pack (save some money buying in bulk n all that) anyone reccomend somewhere to buy a big spindle? and how much i should expect to pay?

also are there certain brands to avoid, or are they all more or less the same?

Im sure someone else will give you some better info as to what discs are best. I hear the Ritek ones with a particular dye are good but not sure off the top of my head. they also do mixed sample packs.

i've used http://www.blankdiscshop.co.uk/ for years now and never had a problem. as uncle henry says stick to discs with the ritek dye and you shouldn't have any problems with burning errors etc

the dye used is listed next to "ADVDINFO"
