Just want to point out all my statements on DVD+RW/+R are _heresay_,
since I've heard them second hand.

I'm also biased because I saw some of my colleagues in Japan get burned
with the previous generation 3G Sony/Philips DVD-R+W (or whatever they
called it), and then people here with the Gen1 DVD+RW drives that didn't
do DVD+R.

I'm trying to confirm that DVD+R actually uses a variation of MO (like
CD-RW/DVD-RW/DVD+RW) instead of a burn/dye-based technology (like CD-R
and DVD-R).  That too is also heresay to this point with me.
