I don't necessarily think they are the "best", but just seem to be a well known brand which seem to work well for people a lot of the time.
As opposed to not working?

These imation disks right in front of me could be the best, but are they sold at every single shop and are they the most expensive?
Please steer clear of that brand!

And what defines "best", produce the least amount of errors on average? That's very important but I don't think that makes a certain brand of disk "better" overall in terms of other aspects of a disc (such as longability, which you mentioned). Verbatim might have very competitive prices which make people want to buy them, and they seem to get the job done quite well. Just a thought...
If a specific type of disc produces no errors and lasts longer than other discs, I would think it would be 'the best'. After all, we want quality right?
Basically it comes down to this. If you want long lasting DVD backups, use the media stated in that post. Otherwise buy cheap crap and you will get just that.
