I don't see any advantage, but I'm no expert.

  DVD-R is compatible with a wider range of DVD equipment.

One plays better on DVD players. I don't remember which. Try Wikipedia. I 
think I saw the answer there.

DVD-R is the native format for video DVDs. I can burn the -R and +R on 
my computers, but I've found that the -R disks can be read by more 
players/readers. YMMV.
