ohio_wookie Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 they are just different types of dvds, the difference is how they work. it tends to go -Rs for movies and media. and +Rs for data. alot of dvd players that play copies only play the -Rs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morabu Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 there are huge differences in the way they are made and the "pit depths" , "laser wavelength" and distance in between protective plactic disc and foil recording substrate, and that DVD-R are flagged as -R and DVD+R are not flagged at all so you can change the "Booktype" to whatever you like what does all this mean to you as far as recording goes........not much the only thing that should concern you is which one your players like the best and that USUALLY is DVD-R if you would like really in-depth answers i would be more than happy to explain booktyping and/or link you to a couple informative websites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
