Re: [CUBE] OfficeMax DVD-R @ 80¢ 25 Pack

[Thubten Kunga]

Launched Toast, inserted KHypermedia DVD-R disc from the 25-Pack deal, 
chose "Recorder" —> "Disc Info ..." and it shows up perfectly as 
expected with 4.4 GB available on the blank. Have you checked your 
System Preferences —> Hardware for the "CDs & DVDs" behaviors upon 
insert?

I have my blank CD set to launch Toast and my blank DVD set to Ignore 
since I may be doing iDVD or Toast. I don't think you have a media 
problem, I think you have an operator error problem.
