ings can be made. Although DVD + R offers less
recording flexibility than DVD + RW , the lower cost
per disc and the fact that the material can not be
erased or edited make it the best choice for large
distributions of recordings to friends or clients.
DVD+RW DVD+RW discs can be written to and
erased multiple times . Existing recordings can be
deleted and disc space regained. These discs do
not require a finalization procedure.
