Since I'm about to retire my old PCI machines and get either a used G4 or a new 
G5, I'm not spending much time dealing with the DVD problem I wrote about. But 
I do want to share one interesting bit of info:

When I tried a DVD+R (not DVD-R!) disc with Toast 5.0.1 (and nothing later!), 
it worked after a fashion! The program saw the disc as a (very large) CD-R disc 
and was able to write to it as if it were one. The most annoying limitation was 
that  it would finalize the disc even when I clicked on "Write Session", so I 
could only create one volume (though a rather large one!) on a disc. Also, it 
would only let me write at "24x" (CD, not DVD) speed  or slower, although the 
drive usually writes CD-R's at 48x.

P.S. Thanks to all those who responded to my original posts.
