Mort- the question was basically why buy +R if you DONT book type. Those links you provided are only talking about booktyping. So that doesnt really answer the question. Thanks for your attempt though.
One of those links are about the benefits of bitsetting however the first link explains why dvd+r is superior to dvd-r in general. Sorry, I will refrain in trying to help you in the future.
@luckEpenE People are trying to help you. Mort is a very resourceful memeber, and you could be a little more thankful, and I would keep him on my good side, if you want help in the future. If you only want to do what you already know, you shouldn't ask the question anyway. Now, I have a Nec 3550A burner. I was really leery about getting new firmware myself, as sometimes I go by "If it ain't broken, don't fix it". Mine was up to date, I just wanted to be able to booktye. But I can not tell you, how easy is to do, if you follow the instuctions. No other progs running, no media in the drive, disable any other drive you have. Some people say is safe to do it in "Safe Mode". Anyway, I flashed my drive with the latest Liggy Modiff. Firmware, and I can play all my DVD+Rs booktyped to DVD-Rom in any player. They would probably play even in the microwave if it had a screen! Here is the link: http://liggydee.cdfreaks.com/page/3520/
@luckEpenE - how about you start helping yourself in future if you can't find what you need in the help provided by others, in conjunction with a bit of common sense of your own. All the answers you needed are in the links provided and booktyping has to be one of the most explained topics around here, especially as mort is one of the guys here who posts the most on booktyping, a search thru his posts would give you what you think you are missing from his reply.
