DVD±RW (DVD Rewritable)

–Discs that are rewritable can be used for multiple recordings once existing data is erased.

DVD±R (DVD Recordable)

–Discs can only be used for a single recording. Each new recording is always added at the end of all previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten.

–Editing can be made on any DVD±R discs as long as they have not been finalized. It is also possible to create additional chapter markers.

–To play a DVD±R on other DVD player, it must be finalized. (See “Playing your recordings (DVD±R) on other DVD players”.) After finalizing the DVD±R, no more data can be added to the disc.
