There's a store in Toronto called PC4CANADA (www.pc4canada.com) that
had a special on TY DVD-R discs (100 for $25). After hearing all the
glowing reviews, I figured I'd buy a stack while it was on special and
try it out. The burn quality is acceptable, but not as good as I'd
have expected based on how much people seem to worship at the TY alter
here. About what I got with RiData G05. I got better results from the
SmartBuy discs that I usually buy.

I think I got scammed as I've checked some websites on confirming their
authenticity and the stack I got had no cover sheet, and the hubs were
transparent, not semi-opaque., with no markings except a bar code. The
only markings that indicate that it's TY media are on a photocopied
label that the store taped to the stack. Packaging was shrink wrapped
with plastic end caps and a plastic rod through the middle.

Did I get scammed or am I just being paranoid? The store swears it's
real, and they don't do refunds on media, so I'm stuck with it.
