    I always use -R discs. When you have to send a DVD to a client, you can't go wrong with -R. We once bought a spindle of +R discs as they were on offer but out of the 4 or 5 discs we burned a couple of people came back and said the disc didn't play. Very embarrassing.

    We've learnt our lesson and always use -R discs now.

    If you "bitset" them to DVD-ROM, they'll be at least as compatible as -R, probably more.
