It seems like every other e-mail I get now is a new product from JVC media. Considering the proven media from TY I’m intrigued – I find it highly unlikely that it’s a run-of-the-mill media with luke warm recording and printing. The last big announcement from TY was silver water shield in 2008 Q4 – looks like they’ve been busy.

“New Inkjet” isn’t standard CD-R and DVD-R media, but it’s not Water Shield. It seems to fall somewhere in between. A slight premium from the standard A-grade printable media but not the full fledged Water Shield. I’ve got a case on order, I’ll have a product review shortly.

 Not all things are created equal, including inkjet printable media. For pennies more than a standard disc, the New Inkjet Printable Media from JVC features a water resistant printing surface that won’t smudge or smear when wet. Not smearing when wet isn’t the only great feature of New Inkjet Printable Media; 100X faster ink drying, 116X more vibrant colors, and 4X glossier print surface are included too.
