I really want a DVD Rewriteable drive....I've been looking at them for the past few months and I still haven't been able to decide which one to buy. Right now there are two standards that are fighting it out:

DVD+RW/DVD+R - which is supported by HP

DVD-RW/DVD-R - which is supported by Pioneer

...at first I was going to go with HP, only because of the great performance I've had out of their CD-RW drives. The only thing that concerns me is that the DVD+R is a new format and it's not known how compatible it is with older set-top players. The DVD-R format is a lot better at that...plus it's supposed to be compatible with my DVD player...and the media is cheaper. A guy that works in the video studio here is getting a new Dell PC soon and is going to have me install a Pioneer DVR-A04(DVD-R) drive in it for him....I'll wait and see how it performs, and see if a DVD-R disc will work in my player...

I'm so itching to get one these....I'm hoping I can wait...I've been pretty good so far...but it's only a matter of time before I crack.
