So you've decided to widen your home film viewing options and download some movies, burn a few DVDs, start a little collection. You go online to buy a new burner and you see all this algebra-looking stuff like 20X and DVD+RW or DVD-R, and you think you should know what all of this means, but you don't. Thankfully, it's not that complicated.

Some may remember the Beta vs. VHS conflict of the late 20th Century, when the videotape wars were won by VHS and some companies took a hit. Luckily, a group of DVD makers had the sense to get IBM to broker a deal with the other companies, the format was agreed upon by all the major manufacturers and distributors, and the DVD was born.

The "code" is pretty easy to break. The number with the "X," as in "20X" is the writing speed. The burner also has a writing speed, and no matter how fast the DVD turns, the writing speed is determined by the burner. It is recommended that you get the highest speed DVD your burner can handle. Those planning on burning tons of them might opt for a faster burner, but for most who burn one every now and then, speed is not as big an issue.

Burning requires DVD-R or DVD+R discs. The "R" stands for "recordable." DVD±RW discs are recordable and re-writable, meaning that they can be recorded over like audiotape. And there are SL (single layer) and DL (double layer), with the double layer variety able to store (surprise!) about twice as much data.

The prevailing wisdom is that for collectors, the DVD-R is the best, offering good audio and video quality and stable data storage, while the RW type is great for recording shows for later viewing.

As for the + or – question (as in DVD-R or DVD+R), those are different formats that have been adopted by manufacturers. It seems they couldn't agree on everything, so they decided to confuse the consumer instead. If you burn DVDs only for yourself it really doesn't matter which one you use, as long as it's compatible with your burner and player. If you burn for lots of other people, go with the –R designation, which is compatible with more players, including PC and player drives.

Finally, there is quality of the manufacturer to consider. Web Sites give you opinions on which company sells the best for burning. Pioneer, Mitsubishi and Sony seem to be the favorite brands, but a lot seems to depend on where the disc is manufactured (Japanese DVDs test well) and the quality of the materials and the production.
