Simply put, DVD come in two basic formats + and -. Both work fine on
a player but the sign must match the type of burner you have. For
example, I have a DVD+R/RW. I can not write to the DVD-R discs to
make DVDs from them (but it will read a DVD-R disc). Some burners are
+/-, which means it'll take either format, which is a very good thing.
RW means it can use a rewriteable DVD, which can erase and write again
to the DVD. However, only have 50% of the DVD players (to the
television) will work with a RW disc, so that's not a good choice for
a final distributed version.

ones I bought were Memorex dvd-r 8x. Were these data dvds? Thanks
for the info.
