I had an ancient Panasonic A310 that is able to read TDK brand DVD-R and DVD+Rs. In general DVD-Rs have a slightly higher compatibility rate than DVD+Rs on standalone DVD players.

I am not a lawyer, but I do not believe renting a movie to copy it is legal, at least in the US. Now, in Canada, it is a bit strange...the law explicitly states that you cannot DISTRIBUTE copies. Who knows how this is interpreted. I should check one day...

Personally, I would wait 6 months and see how the new dual-layer DVD burners work out.



Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him...a super-callused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
