Out of all the formats, DVDR / DVD-R / DVD-RW and so on, is there one that so far is more commonly used than the others? as far as dvd players out in the market and in people's homes?
Just wondering, or is it pretty even across the board.
thanks,

Then again nowadays things are developed at such an unbelievable rate the compatability is probably almost the same.
As I said, this is just my OPINION and not complete fact as I don't want to start a format war. -
DVD-R has a slight edge over DVD+R

DVD-R is a non-rewriteable format and it is compatible with about 90% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
DVD+R is a non-rewritable format and it is compatible with about 85% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs. -
Yes there is a common format that adheres to all specs provided by the DVD forum, and that format is...DVD-ROM...so go out there and start pressing young soldier and fight the good fight... :P
