The advantage with a DVD+R is the it can be book typed (if your burner supports it) into DVD ROM which may play on more machines. This was more of an issue years ago. That being said, I still use DVD+R when burning. Far more important is the quality of the media you are using. Here's some good reading on the subject.

I've had great luck with a brand one month, and a bunch of duds the next. In the old days Verbatim was the default best of the best, but even they have degraded lately. That said, the last 5 TDK DL packs I've picked up have all had an unusually high number of coasters. I have never tried their SL discs. -- Intel Q6600 @3400Mhz/GA-EP35-DS3P/2x 2048Mb G.Skill/Seagate 750.10/EVGA 8800GT's SLI/Silverstone 850W/Custom water cooler
