I have two dvd recorders, both Panasonic and both record on DVD-R discs. Other brands used DVD+R and others used all formats. Mine also use DVD-RAM and those are rewritable discs, which means I can record on them, then erase it and use it again. I've had my machines for close to 10 yrs now and everything I've recorded has been on the DVD-R. All my recordings are for my own personal use. Except for a few. For instance, recently, I recorded Son Of The Morning Star. One for my own collection, and one for my son who's a huge Custer nut. Also, my niece asked me if I could transfer some of her home video she had on tape to dvd and I did that. One thing I will not do, is record a movie or tv show and sell it. Then, to me, you're asking for trouble. Don't want the piracy police to come see me.
