    Default DVD burner!

    hey im looking for a DVD burner and i dont want to pay above £200 the media is pretty cheap these days. im looking to be able to write files to these disks and also movies Divx etc...

    i have been looking on Ebuyer.com and i have noticed that certain DVD recorders have a + and some have a - for example

    DVD-R/RW
    and then DVD+r/RW

    whats the difference and is there any recomendations

    but also think about my budget!

    +r and -r are 2 different formats.
