What's the difference between the 2? Are they like Apples and Oranges?

Probably a more apt analogy would be comparing VHS to Beta. So far Mac DVD burners have been DVD-R.  The likely hood is that DVD+R will win out in the DVD finals.  sad.gif

Actually, DVD-R(W) and DVD+R(W) is just two side of the same coin. Two different standards doing the same thing. None is fancier than the other. It seems that the DVD-R(W) has become more of a standard now than + has become, at least here in Europe.

This article describes is fairly well: http://support.lan-plus.com/support/tech_n...rs_tutorial.asp
