Just wondering where everyone buys their media. The place I usually use doesn't seem to be any more competitive than micro center down the street.
View Full Version : Good place to get dvd's/bluray's in bulk Greg Fiske March 29th, 2011, 11:57 AM Just wondering where everyone buys their media.

Wayne Faulkner March 30th, 2011, 02:21 AM Depends how many you get through over a fixed period of time and your storage space, generally I buy in batches of 25 or 50 discs from online sources. Probably a good idea to stock up now, since all the damage in Japan will no doubt cause a price rise. Edgar Vasiluk March 30th, 2011, 02:28 AM Look at Amazon, they have good discounts and I like reviews.

My local Sams club has the best price on bulk printable regular DVD's so that is the only media I buy locally. For Blu-ray's I search Amazon then either use google or pricegrabber or nextag to search for the best deals. I recently bought online two different brands of printable Blu-ray media in 30 qty for about one dollar each. George Kilroy March 31st, 2011, 02:03 AM I'd be wary of buying the cheapest bulk from an untested source which may appear to be good value now. When I first started to produce DVDs I sourced the lowest price 'A' grade discs and never had a fail, however now some six or seven years later I am getting a number of those returned to me. They have played without problem until recently but have suddenly become unplayable. None of them are physically damaged and as far as I am aware they have been stored in their case. I believe that they dye is starting to deteriorate. A saving of a few £s or $s may seem favourable at the time but although you can't be 100% certain of the longevity of any media is a small saving worth the potential 'timebomb' of it becoming unusable later on.

I meant to say "I buy my DV tapes always online". I use the basic Sony mini DV tapes and Amazon almost always has incredible prices on them from several of their vendors and I have never had a problem. I also have never had a problem with the printable DVD media I buy at Sams club in 100 qty. bulk. |
