Let me start out by saying that I could NEVER burn a Memorex or any brand DL disk when using an IDE DVD burner (tried 3 different brands of burner). Single layer was fine. I’m not sure why, but I’m guessing there was some limitations in the IDE bus on my motherboard and it was corrupting the data when it came to DL disks. My computer would freeze for a moment and then I’d get an error message of some sort. I tried dozens of different burning software and nothing worked until going to a SATA drive. So if your having trouble burning DL disks try upgrading to a SATA DVD burner.
I finally got a basic level LG SATA drive and all my problems were solved. I’ve yet to have a bad burn or any coasters that were caused by a bad disk. These Memorex work fine for me and I’ve used both the 8x and 2.4x versions. I don’t notice any difference between the quality of burn with the 8x vs the 2.4x. All the disks work in my PS3 perfectly. I obviously prefer the 8x due to the time difference it takes to burn a disk but you can get the 2.4x cheaper so I tend to buy them. I also believe that a slower burn will give you a better burned DVD that is likely to have less issues when playing back. But, like I said I haven’t had any issues with the 8x and the PS3.
I don’t think for long term storage of critical data you would want to use a DL disk due to it being more complex in nature and more likely to have issues or fail as it ages. For pure data backups, I use Taiyo Yunden DVD-Rs.

When through 50 Memorex DVD+R DLs and only had a successful burn approximately 20% of the time. With Verbatim I have yet to have a bad burn. Any difference in cost is offset by the value of your time. Can’t remember why exaclty I even bought Memorex but will never again buy any other brand until they can prove their reliability. One thing to keep in mind is that the data integrity of your discs will degrade over time, even if you keep them in an ideal environment and in perfect condition. I would assume that Verbatims may last a little longer. So I you have precious data, you don’t want to go with anything less.
