Differences between DVD +R and -R
What is the difference between DVD+R and DVD-R?
I notice that many people keep asking this question on yahoo answers when they are using DVD recorder and DVD burner, and these two recorder format are really very similar and could be confusing. So if you are still unclear about the difference, just read on for details.
As of June 2006, there is no physical difference between a DVD-R/-RW disc and a DVD+R/+RW disc. There is, however, a series of technical differences between DVD-R/-RW DVD+R/+RW recorder format. The DVD+R/+RW format offers subtle extra functionality for people who record their own movies and data.
The Standards Differences
Both formats can be written once, and the truth is that the two competing technologies use different formats. No single company "owns" DVD and both technologies have their "champions".
DVD-R (pronounced "DVD dash R") and DVD-RW are officially approved by the standards group DVD Forum which was founded by Mitsubishi, Sony, Hitachi, and Time Warner, so it has tremendous industry support for its technical standards. DVD-R is supposed to be slightly better for videos and movies as widely accepted by home DVD players
DVD+R ("DVD plus” R) and DVD+RW formats are not approved by the DVD Forum standards group, but are instead supported by the DVD+RW Alliance. The DVD+RW Alliance are supported by Sony, Yamaha, Philips, Dell, and JP, so it also has tremendous industry support for its technical standards. Note that Sony supports both organizations. And DVD+R is supposed to be slightly better for data, because the data can be added later (not rewrite, but still accessible) if the disk has enough room.
The Main Functional Differences
1) the DVD recorder's built-in defects management
2) the way the recorders format and rewrite DVDs
3) the price.
According to the claims of the DVD Alliance, DVD+R recorder will let you:
1. Instantly eject without having to wait for finalized formatting.
2. Ability to record one DVD disc partially on PC and partially on television.
3. Background formatting: while the disc is being formatted, you can simultaneously record on already-formatted portions of the same disc.
4. Enhanced ability to edit filenames, movie and song titles, and playlists.
5. 100% compatibility with all other DVD players, while still enjoying these extra recording features.

High Definition Video Publishing Blu-ray Authoring
High definition home video publishing using Blue-Ray discs.
The Battle's Over
It’s definitely time to face it: Blu-ray won the war. After a few short years of placing bets on whether HD DVD or Blu-ray would be the winner, we now have a new format that is going to be the standard. With this we now need to upgrade our own home video publishing to match this new technology.
Usability
Blu-ray is much more versatile than your standard DVDs for a number of reasons. When authoring DVDs you may have noticed that you can only include 4.7 GB worth of data, which is very little once you add a variety of media and special features. The standard BR-D can hold 25 GB of data, which changes the entire dynamic of what you can do with home authoring. Beyond this you have the pure high definition video capabilities that are quickly becoming the standard.
Hardware
You will need Blu-ray specific hardware for this type of burning. The average Blu-ray burner can run anywhere from $350 to $550, but a good investigative shopper can usually find it at the minimum price. The Sony BDU-X10S and the Plextor PX-B900 have come out as effective burners, but the Pioneer BDR-202 has been recently announced and is expected to dominate the marketplace.
Software
Software for this emerging format is coming even more rapidly, and a quick Google search will reveal a number of free authoring programs that can handle the Blu-ray format. Adobe has led the pace with Encore CS3, which will let you jump formats even if your source material is not immediately compatible. If you are just starting out with home video editing you may want to purchase an editing package whose DVD authoring capabilities extend to Blu-ray. DVD architect 5, which is included in Sony’s Vegas Pro 8, is great at doing cross-platform disc creation. The same is also true for the Adobe Premiere package and the newest Final Cut Pro, for Apple users. If you are trying to do your best with freeware or older editing software you should give Nero 8 Ultra Edition a try, which will not cost too much money.
Be Practical
It is important to remember that, as this technology becomes the standard, the prices for all software, hardware, and discs will become progressively cheaper. Blu-ray is not coming in as quickly as many analysts had predicted, so you may want to hold off for a few more months. The best bet is to upgrade your computer equipment to software and hardware that can handle the format, but are not specifically based around it.
