I know there is a standard for DVD+RW DL (i.e. double layer
rewriteable disc) but does anyone actually make/sell them?

zambi- That would be News to me ? "I know there is a standard for DVD+RW DL (i.e. double layer
rewriteable disc) but does anyone actually make/sell them? " what your talking about Would be a real Niche Market Item =( having a very limited or Small target audience] If your thinking on them for Video Think on This ! yes you can Record/write Video as well as data to a RW disc But in my experience Albeit limited RW disc tend to Scratch easier than DVD-R or DVD+R's do also after several rewrite cycles atleast in video usage RW disc tend to become unusable due to errors ect... Also DL media is already expensive though it has come down somewhat in price ! & you want to add making it RW to the price ? it'll be Catch -22 big Time = DL media is expensive Because not enough people are Buying it ! and Not Enough People are buying it cause it's expensive ! ] Actually DL media is also more Difficult to make properly Hence More wasted Disc ( at the factory ) hence higher cost for the ones that are good enough to market !!! So this is a factor in the cost too ! i would Stick with DVD+R , DVD-R or DVD+R DL media with Perhaps a few Dvd+rw's to experiment with But That's me !!!

JVC introduced a DL DVD-RW disc about two years ago. It will not play in any standard DVD player or drive or work with any existing recording software until the players/drives/software are modified to recognize and accept the altered video file names required for the format. It is as popular as anyone but JVC would have expected.
