In short, DVD+ & DVD- are all write-one format, but DVD+ can be used on DVD player, Recorders and DVD-ROM drives. And DVD- can not be used on DVD player. As for me, i always use this DVD ripping software to copy contents off DVD disc to my local disk for backup.
what is the difference between dvd+ and dvd-?
i got a dvd reading dvdrw+ but it wont read on other computers.
may be their dvdroms are not compatible with all dvd types.which dvdrw should i buy so that the chances of reading it on other comps are more?
