Most Fuji Films CD-R and DVD's are made by Taiyo Uden in Japan, except last
year when some 100 packs were made by Prodisc in Taiwan (fair quality)
Fuji is
supposed to have a plant in Europe that also makes them, but I have never seen
those in the USA.
If you have a DVD burner I suggest downloading http://www.dvdinfopro.com/ - a
program that can tell you who really makes your CD-R's and DVD's.
