DVD's?

I just got my first DVD burner and I am a little confused as to the many different types of DVDs. What is the difference between DVD-R AND DVD+R? I know that DL is double layer but just what is the + & - mean?

Welcome to PCMech! I think the + and - are less of an issue anymore, as almost all burners and most newer players support both formats.

For really good info on all things DVD, check out www.videohelp.com
