  1. Hi John,

    The DVD+R and DVD-R are competing formats much like the old VHS and Beta formats in video tapes. Today most drives are Hybrid and handle both formats. They are usually labeled DVD+/-R.

    My personal experience has led me towards using the +R. It is slightly better at error handling so more tolerant of dirty or damaged media and also more tolerant to the subtle differences between players.

    As far as brands we have found Verbatim the best, Sony a close second and Memorex the absolute worst.

    By DVD copier you mean a DVD copy program Nero is one of the best but my preference is Clone DVD. You can read about it & get a 21 day free trial here - http://www.slysoft.com/en/clonedvd.html
