Anyone know of reliable DVD+R DL inkjet printables? Verbatim discontinued the ones I prefer.

UPDATE: I was lucky enough to find a small town dealer who has a 20 pack in stock. I paid $44 (shipped) for it, but dammit, it's what i wanted. So A-men to that.

Original message...

Oh my God, I am going to DIE!! (an exaggeration, but let me vent) I have always used Verbatim DataLifePlus Inkjet Printable DVD+R DL (P/N 9512) blanks. 

I've had less than a 1% failure rate and my printer loves them. I use about 20 to 25 per year (that's it) and I am down to my last one. 

And whoa!!!!! the shock when I saw Amazon no longer stocks them. Nobody stocks them! And holy crap, the ones on eBay are crazy expensive. They have been discontinued. The new version is a 50 pack (I don't need that many) and what I do not like... Printable to the very center of the disc. My Canon MX850 won't go to the absolute center so the Verbatims i was using were perfect.

So... Anyone know of some reliable inkjet printable DVD+R DL's out there?

While I will settle for blanks that have a printing surface all the way to the center if I must, I would really like to avoid that. I frequently have to send out sample DVD's and it would not look professional of part of the surface was blank white. These are what i want...

Verbatim

Note the black spot around the hub. Perfect for my printer, which cannot print in that area.

And I only need a pack of 20 to 25. A big bundle of 50 or more is just not needed and too rich for my blood right now. 

Thanks, all.
