I can read DVD-RW's written by a pioneer A03 in dvd-rom drives after a number of rewrites and full erases without problem. However, it doesnt work with all drives. Especially older ones seems to be a problem. It also seems to be dependent on who the drive manufacturer are. Some general comments on dvd-r, dvd-rw and dvd+rw. dvd-r is designed to be readable by everything that can read a dvd-rom disc. dvd-rw is not designed to automatically be as compatible as dvd-rw. It has to do with the discs reflectivity. dvd+rw is designed to be as compatible as dvd-r (same reflectivity levels).
