Both camps say their format is the more compatible one of the two, so I would look into what other machines you want to play the new DVD's on. You said you have a dual format burner, so you should be ok whichever way you go. DVD-R,-RW, and +R discs need to be finalized to play in external players, whereas DVD+RW do not need to be. DVD-R and -RW discs are not always interchangeable between recorders either. You can not manually add chapter markers while recording on the fly with DVD-R and -RW, but you can with +R and +RW. And you won't be able to play something previously recorded while recording or "time slip" with any of the formats. Thats why DVD-RAM is the shit.
