What is the Difference Between DVD+R and DVD-R Discs?
DVD-R
DVD-R is the most suitable media for burning when you want the absolute best in cross compatibility with older systems or dvd-video players. For example - if you're burning actual video files, or you're making a slideshow disc to play on a normal DVD player. Older computers and a lot of older DVD players will often only accept DVD-R discs.
DVD+R
DVD+R is the most suitable media to burn if you are archiving files. These discs have more error checking built in to the burn pattern and are therefore more tolerant of minor imperfections in the burn and the disc structure, so should in theory last even longer than DVD-R discs.
We use Taiyo Yuden (JVC) DVD Master Quality discs for burning all our scans to discs for clients. They are very very reliable and habitually come out on top of DVD media tests.
- Chris J -I received my print today and I just wanted to let you know how incredibly happy I am with the outcome.
The print itself is beautifully done, and the small fixes you made to the scan are perfect. The care taken with the packaging also ensured entirely damage-free delivery. This may be Image Science’s standard operating practice, but having sent a few prints out before with less than great results, I want to assure you the care and attention is greatly appreciated.
So, thank you for being such a great service, and you can expect a number of further printing jobs to head your way shortly.
