What real Taiyo Yuden media looks like

Saturday, December 9th, 2006

So, I bought another cakebox of Taiyo Yuden DVD+Rs (finally ran out of my previous batch). Seeing as many manufacturers try to sell fake Taiyo Yuden branded media, I’ve decided to take pictures of the cakebox I just got before I open it.

The wrapper at the bottom (which only encircles the bottom about three inches or so) says “TAIYO YUDEN   DVD+R8X Disc MID  YUDEN 002 T02″ in black text. The cakebox bottom is flush with top, and has no grip.
