Many Sony DVD players are known to only read commercially pressed discs, unless you get a dual laser model. I have had luck with a few silver aACER CD-R on a Sony 550 though, which otherwise doesn't read anything non commercially made. > That was gonna be my next question - what was DVD+RW supposed to > offer above DVD-RW? Better compatibility with older DVD players and DVD rom drives. Oh and cheaper too I think. Not sure if they have done either yet. And the initial adopters are not too happy with the DVD+RW / DVD+R ability promised and not delivered. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
