  2. Ive never seen DVD+R..seen "DVD+RW", which signifies that it is a rewritable, where DVD-R is just a recordable.

    From VCDHelp:
    DVD-R
    is primarily designed for DVD production use. DVD-R is none rewriteable format. DVD-R is compatible with many existing DVD-ROM drives and many DVD-Video players.

    DVD-RW
    is primarily supported by Pioneer. DVD-RW is a rewriteable format. It is compatible with many existing DVD-ROM drives and DVD-Video players.

    DVD+RW and DVD+R
    is scheduled to become available in late 2001. DVD+RW is a rewritable format and the DVD+R is just a none rewritable format. It will be compatible with most existing DVD-ROM drives and DVD-Video players.

    DVD-RAM
    is not compatible with most DVD-ROM drives and DVD-Video players. Think of it as a removable hard disk that can also read DVD-ROM discs.
    I only dream in black & white...
