    Can anyone tell the exact size of a file I can put on a DVD-R and then on a DVD+R. When it says 4.7 gigs on the disk that doesn't really mean 4.7 gigs for either disk does it.Thanks.

    I think the max size is 4.36gig. I just keep it around 4.3gig and don't seem to have any problems.

    when they say 4.7 gigs, they really mean 4.7 billion bytes, which equals 4.37 gigabytes.
