Hi,
This seemed like a pretty basic question but I didn't find anything after searching. I need to burn a DVD with VIDEO_TS files. So how do I know which one to use DVD+R or DVD-R. I googled it and a lot of people seem to go back and forth on which one is better. I have an HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GSA-H73N drive, and also a GSA-H21N on another computer. So, LG, I don't know if that matters as to what kind I need. Since these drives say DVD+-RW does that mean that they're more compatible with rewritable media, because I wan write once media.

I was told by some others on a thread entitled "How Many Times Can a Disk Be Rewritten Before Loss of Quality?" on the DVD+-R forum.

This is a summary of what i learned there:
DVD-R is compatible with more players than DVD+R. There is little if any difference in the actual video quality between the two. Either type of write once media is better in quality than rewritable media.

DVD-R is been exist longer that DVD+R (2003)
DVD-R is comparable with old DVD Players made before of 2003.
DVD-R can be edit after been burn on it (Roxio Builder, Nero Builder)than make them erease sections that you do not want to see on your play back. NOTE: The original burn will be there...but the DVD Player do not gonna be able to read it and DVD+R can't be edit after burn them.
DVD-R or DVD+R have the same video quality wise on your back ups and also compareble for most of the electronic equipments of today.

They are other things I can keep mention, but I gonna stop here.....

Hope this may help.
