DVD

DVD+ and DVD- are competing DVD burning formats. (DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD+R, DVD+RW)

DVD- is supposed to be fully compatible with a standard television-type DVD player, although many manufacturers are making their players cross compatible to attract buyers.

When DVD recorders came to the consumers there were several consortums that fought to get their technology as the "standard".

What we would up with was the DVD-R and DVD+R. Each group clamed superiority.

Now several vendors have DVD Recorders that will utilize and record on both formats. Pioneer DVR-A06 for an example.

Hope this helps.
