No
other format can match DVD+R/+RW's functionality, simplicity
and compatibility. DVD+R/+RW was designed from the beginning
with both data and video recording uses in mind. Compatibility
with existing DVD players and DVD-ROM drives is a major
strength of the DVD+R/+RW format. Because there are no
confusing recording modes, you don't have make trade-offs
between compatibility and flexibility.
DVD+RW video recorders allow users to add, delete or divide
titles, overwrite titles in whole or in part, create or
modify play lists and make other changes without losing
compatibility with existing DVD players, unlike other formats.
DVD+R/+RW also allows instant use and instant eject - you
don't have to wait for the disc to format or finalize.
And DVD+R/+RW recorders offer the same type of operation
you're used to seeing on DVD players.
For PC users, DVD+RW offers direct editing on disc, background
formatting so you don't have to wait before you can use the
disc, built-in defect management, multi-session writing, and
other unique recording features. DVD+R/+RW uses the same disc
for both video and data. You can share recordings between
your home electronics and computer equipment, add new recordings
or even edit directly on the same disc. Furthermore, DVD+R
Double Layer technology allows for storage of up to 8.5 GB
of data on a single sided disc.
Supported by leading companies such as Dell, HP, Philips,
Sony, Ricoh and close to one hundred other hardware and
software leaders, DVD+R/+RW is the smart format for beginners
and experts alike.
