Use them. I've got some sony dvd+rw's (media code phillips 041) that have been excellent. Burned and reburned countless times and still perform great.

DVD+RW does not use dye. Thoee media use 5 layers of metal alloys sputtered onto the discs. Since the alloy is impervious to UV light and reacts only to heat, there is some evidence that they could outlast dye-based discs (especially if dielectric layers were to be used--which they are not for either DVD-RW or DVD+RW). Philips/HP/Sony intended the + format to have only DVD+RW, but they were later forced to introduce a less expensive dye-based DVD+R disc; so the DVD+RW discs should be perfectly suitable for anything a DVD+R disc is.

spOrin- You could use them for whatever you choose to ! but suggestion ! I would use them for when your having problems copying a difficult movie for example - then you could use them for a trial run burn if they work burn a permanent copy if it comes out screwy erase & star over no coaster to throw away - Also I have'nt had any experience with the Sony DVD+RW's in particular but RW media tends to be a little more finicky than the permanent disc - they seem to scratch more easily and sometimes will become unreadable after several burn/erase/reburn cycles! Being you've got them already you may as well use them ! Though if I were in the market for RW media I think I would get verbatim ! I understand you got these by mistake and these things happen so don't sweat it ! Good luck and happy burning!
