I bought 200 of these last week on the 10% off w/free shipping deal, and received them today. They come without a stacking ring, shrink wrapped with a white label on the wrap that says "Value DVD-R".
Using Nero, the media code checked out as TYG01 (as advertised). I tested the quality of the disks (2 samples) using Nero utilities and the results were absolutely excellent. This is some good stuff. I usually buy the Ritek 4X DVD-R?s (media code Ricoh JPNR01), and these are my first Taiyo Yuden?s. I can understand the glowing reviews of the Taiyo Yuden DVD media now.
