DVD burner question

Hey All,

Anyone have anything good or bad to say about any of these DVD-RW models? I'm looking for a burner that will be as compatible as possible and was told the "-" works better than the "+" -- is this true. Appreciate any feedback (this is my first DVD burner).

- LG Electronics GMA-4020B
- Plextor P04A/SW-BL
- Memorex 32023251
- BusLink DVRW412R
- Lacie 300571

Thanks

KH

No, the "+" view is just opinion or marketing hype. There are basically two consortiums each supporting their "standard". I got a DVD +RW/R, a HP 200i burner. It works fine. Others I know got a burner from the DVD-RW camp. It works fine too.

Look over at VCDHelp site and read a bunch of opinions there and of course to be sure whatever version you buy plays in the DVD set top player you have or plan to purchase.
