Please don't reply if you use PLUS - use the other. I thought it might be interesting to see how many replies go to each question.
all disks are either -r or ram ( you didn't offer that one )
i use -R at the moment anyway
I use both! -R/-RW on the PC, and +RW on my Philips set-top recorder. Mixed up or what?
I use - but have had one request for +
-R
minus R , mainly because the 104 was the "bees knees" when I bought it.....
Yep use -r though also use -rw, I have a sony Viao that can do either -r or +r/rw just haven't found a brand of +r/rw that I like yet.
-R + -RW with the Pioneer 106
Hi,
I use -r in Sony DRU 500A
Tony
I use -R on the 107 although tempted to try the x8 +R... trouble is the -R are cheaper and work with all i need at the moment.
- R every time on a 106.

-r on a 104
99% -r on a Sony +/- burner. I only use + discs if I know there to be a problem with -r, although this is exceptionally rare.
So you can now see the initial findings suggest an 80/20 split in the - to + users and those who can burn to either predominantly use -. The ones who use + are usually doing so because they have a +r burner.
The initial results are what I would have expected judging by the previous topics on this forum.
What are your conclusions Dave?
-R

I don't really have any conclusions, other than I'm going to stick to -R.
I've had no returns bar one. That seemed to be disc damage - not format choice as they had another -R as a replacement and didn't have anpther problem.
Also, -R discs are cheaper.
I might upgrade my burner to a 106/7 but it would cost me - for what benefit?
It is interesting that the +R seems so unpopular
-R for everything that we send out. +RW for testing (discovered it writes faster than -RW on our kit).
-R
-R using a 106 +/- burner and my first try at burning a DVD was a success - today :D
700 - 750 or so -R'S written
to
23 +R'S over 2 and 1/2 years ish
Mrs Billyboy!
going on customer request and supplied media for
DVD DUPLICATION in the last 2 weeks
considering people are saying they use mainly -R
that its cheaper what happens when sony's dual layer burner gets going? as looking at its specs its +R for dual layer
I`m a -R(RW) on both my PC writer and on the Panasonic stand alone. The only difference is the Panasonic writes only -R (no-RW) and -R Ram
Mike
-R on an A04. Looks like -R wins by a mile on this board at least. Were Philips just out to circumvent the Pioneer royalties when the introduced the +R?
tom.
I use -r and RAM in a Panasonic recorder. I use RAM for recording TV progs.
Arthur
-R on my Sony Dual Burner. Only use the oter for +RW stuff (data backup)
I Use -R and -RW. No customers ask for +R copies
Roy Alexander
I've just bought a Pioneer 107 (dual format).
When I was looking for disks (R & RW), the price decided the matter for me. Minus disks were cheaper (not much, mind, but why throw money away :D ) so I bought a stock of -R and -RW.
They work OK in my Toshiba stand-alone player, which is all that matters at the moment. :cool:
Always used -R
Started using +R for 8x and the very first 2 failed although the reasons could be varied it's put me off +R at the moment
