    Well, this might help you out: What's the difference between DVD-R and DVD+R? - Answerbag.com

    But really, mostly it depends on what you've bought in terms of DVD burners. It should say on the front of your DVD burner either DVD+R or DVD-R. Hey, maybe yours is both. But check it out before you buy some blank DVDs. DVD+Rs won't work on DVD-R burners, and vice versa. Good luck.
