Encyclopedia > DVD plus minus R

There is a disputed request to merge this page into DVD plus R. See the talk page for further discussion.



DVD±R is not a separate DVD format. Rather, it is a term for a DVD drive that can accept both of the recordable DVD formats, DVD-R and DVD+R. Likewise, DVD±RW (also written as DVD±R/W, DVD±R/RW, DVD±R/±RW, DVD+/-RW and other arbitrary ways) handles both DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs (but not usually DVD-RAM).

DVD dash R definition of DVD dash R in computing dictionary - by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia. (240 words)
DVD-Rs are often called "DVD Dash Rs" or "DVD Minus Rs" to distinguish them from the competing "Plus R" format (see DVD+R).
DVD-Rs are the DVD counterpart to CD-Rs and use the same dye-layer recording technology to "burn" the disc.
DVD-R machines (DVD burners) cost as much as $17,000 in their first incarnations back in 1997, but dropped to under $500 by 2002 and less than $100 two years later.
