| 589501 | 2007-09-09 09:03:00 | I have always used -R, never had a problem with them but in saying that I have never used +R. Just stuck with what I originally started with. | plod (107) | ||
| 589502 | 2007-09-09 09:24:00 | Any reviews that I've read say that DVD+R is the better. | Neil McC (178) | ||
| 589503 | 2007-09-09 10:25:00 | Thanks, I think will run with Verbatim or Sony - What format is better DVD+ or DVD - According to this (adterrasperaspera.com) article "+R" is the superior format. This (www.digitalfaq.com) article is also useful in identifying who makes the different brands. |

| 589504 | 2007-09-09 21:43:00 | DVD+R/W has better error-correcting and recovery, DVD-R/W not so much. So a DVD+R would be better if the disc did get damaged, It would be more likely to still work (though that may depend on the drive) But then some older drives and equipment only do DVD-R. If all your stuff can read/write DVD+R fine, then get that. |

| 589505 | 2007-09-09 21:44:00 | If you're getting Verbatim or Sony, avoid any made in India and, if you can, get the Japanese manufactured ones. I think pretty much all in NZ are made in Taiwan though which are ok. Taiyo Yuden are widely regarded as the best quality and of course you pay extra for that. :) |
