I'm thinking of finally getting a DVD-RW drive and I see that 12X drives are just starting to come out. I know that CD-RW drives have pretty much maxed out at 52X. How fast do you guys think that DVD-RW drives will get.

Also I noticed that most drives can write to DVD+R DVDs faster. Why is this? What is the benefit of writing of writing to a DVD-R if most drives write to this type of disc somewhat slower?
