dvd+r or dvd-r?

**anchovies** · 04-17-2004,12:41 PM

I currently have a V4 ps2 that i bought around the summer of 01. Which format of dvds do you think would work best with my ps2? I've heard all sorts of stories about better compatiability with
dvd-r's but faster loads with dvd+r's.

Get -r. The ps2 likes them better. Oh yeah, go with Ritek.

dvd-r. never had a problem with it.

use either one, but if you use +r's use the booktype setting and change them to dvd-rom. did this and never had a problem.

where can you get ritek branded dvds? i can't seem to find them anywhere?

are there any other alternative brands that still work well? Any reccomendations/suggestions on brands or anything is welcomed.

Look online. They are everywhere. Check pricewatch.com if you want to find a bunch of links in one place, or go to meritline.com--they almost always have a good buy going on the G03 or G04. The trick is to buy in quantity. Anything less than a 50pc cake can be a bit pricey.

I've tried both, with varying results. Here's the best one's of each, that I've found & give a good burn 99% of the time;

DVD+R = Imation
DVD-R = Datawrite Classic (Recognisable by their Yellow Back)
