    Here is a simple answer - if you Google question, there are more detailed descriptions

    Quote:

    DVD-R
    Pioneer developed the format. This format is also supported by Panasonic, Toshiba, Apple Computer, Hitachi, NEC, Pioneer, Samsung and Sharp. DVD-R is used for most home DVD players and movies. DVD-R format is best for copying data.

    DVD+R
    The + format is supported by Sony, Philips, HP, Dell, Ricoh, Yamaha and other manufacturers. This format is a little faster and a bit more expensive, best for movies really.

    BUT... Nearly all modern drives and home players are capable of using both formats. Pioneer developed the -R format but all of their drives can read & burn +R.
