I have a Sony DRU-500A which does both standards (DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW) and it works jest fine... $350 at Best Buy but I'm a lazy bastard and couldn't face shopping around for a better price...

        You can call that bug a "thread promotion" feature :-D Happens only to threads "randomly selected" by the computer as all those tele-marketers say. My article on a reference-counted smart pointer that supports polymorphic objects and raw pointers

            The last blanks I got cost me about $11 for 3 (Memorex DVD-R @ CompUSA). I'm not sure if you can copy pre-recorded DVDs - I don't think the (normal) software will allow it. Steve

                  I would have thought that +R/+RW was better, because of the formatting technology. Mind you, I haven't done any actual buying, but I read my PC World... But somebody said no. Care to enlighten me?
