A friend has received a Benq 8x DVD+R and is ecstatic about it, it was (I think) $300 USD.

LiteON are also repackaged in some cheapo brands. But unless you know for sure, stay away from them. I got a QPS Que! and it died just before the warrenty was up. Problem? They filed Chapter 11. Called, e-mailed, nobody home.
BlueRays are just coming out, but at $600-$800, will need to wait a while. I think 8x drives are starting to come out.
