I doubt it is the media. I have been using the same brand, Verbatim, |
| 30 |
for ages and never had a failure. It's even coming from the same box |
| 31 |
and is media that I have used for a previous backup with no issues. |
| 32 |
Each time I have problems burning a DVD, it is something software. I |
| 33 |
stay away from the really cheap junk. I learned that from the problems |
| 34 |
people on this list have reported. |

While it could be possible, it's not likely. |
