There are two competing formats for DVD's + and - format. Your question doesn't mention the + so they are the same format - or the lack of + means -. DVD + is technically a newer format but that doesn't make it any better than the -. You need to determine what your computer's drive burns and also what your DVD player plays. Some computer drives burn both formats. The R stands for Writeable meaning you can burn information or a movie only once. Most newer DVD players can play any format but some cannot. Check the manual or just use trial and error. As a word of advice don't buy a 100 pack of DVD's without first testing your system to make sure they are compatible. Buy a single CD or a smaller pack until you have verified all is well with your system.

There is no such thing as "CD+R".The two common types of CD are CD-R and CD-RW.CD-R can only be written to once, and can be read by a broader range of equipment. This is comparable to tattooing your name into your own eyelid using typical inks. You can't get it out!Data on a CD-RW disc can be rewritten, but you might not be able to read the disc using some older drives or CD players. This is comparable to tattooing your own name into your eyelid using henna. You can get rid of it and put something else there if you want, but old people can't even see it.There are two types of writable DVDs called "DVD-R" and "DVD+R", but the same does not apply to CDs.

Dvd-r is a format of DVD to be burned The DVD +r is considered slightly more compatible with DVD players and more reliable for computer DVD players www.Ricoh.com might be able to shed more light on this.

For CD's there are only 2 formats: CD-R and CD-RW. CD-R is can be written on only once while CD-RW can be erased and re-written on many times (around 1000 times as most manufacturers' claim) There is neither CDR- nor CDR+ formats. The plus and minus are used only on DVD writable media and they are commonly known as DVD-R and DVD+R. And both of these 2 DVD formats also have the rewriteable media, DVD-RW and DVD+RW.

DVD-R is where you burn something onto and you can't change it after but DVD+R is where you can make a change if you want to, after you've burnt it.

CD-RW is a CD that is "readable - writable", regardless of whether it has a + sign in the name. It must say RW however to be "readable - writable".
