I am so worried now. Because I am affraid that my DVD+R cannot play on my stand alone DVD player.

Please tell me that should I return the drive or keep it? If I keep it, can i still copy the DVD movies to DVD+R?
Thank you.

Yes you can still copy to DVD+R. Most players will play the discs though they are generally less compatible than -R but don't let that put you off.

Try burning them as DVD-ROMS.

Make sure you have Nero 5 5 10 35 and on the "Burn" tab, put a tick in the box next to "Book type DVD-ROM".

Then try that disc in your player.

Thank you very much, you guys make me feel more comfortable. Because I alsmost packed the drive and return it to exchange for the DVD-R drive.
Last question, if I keep the drive DVD+R seem very expensive, any where that I can buy the DVD+R disk cheap?
Best regards,

xichlo it just depends where you live? I live in the USA, I found Best Buy to be the best spot for me. I just bought 100 Fuji Film DVD+R for $110.00 after all the rebates. If you live outside the US someone else may be able to help you.. Goodluck
