That's a bit of an exaggeration, but it is certainly among the worse.

Where I live Ritek is not readily available, Ricoh is very expensive,
so Princo was a cheapish alternative.

I've had some errors with 2 bulk packets (25 pack & 50 pack), with the
non-printable cheapest Princo 4x DVD-R product. I switched to the
dearer Princo printable 4x DVD-R and have never had a dud. When I did
have a problem (on the non-printable), the disc failed to even start
burning, if it started burning then it would be OK. This is far better
than a partial burn or read errors.

I've now switched to bulk (20 pack) Ricoh 4x printables, they're
dearer but I've never had an error.

I'm using a Pioneer DVR-107D.

I use the printable 4x in 50 spindles.
Only had 4 duds in burning 200.
Quite good for cheap blanks.
