DVD Formats:

Non-Recordable Formats: DVD-ROM: These are pressed similarly to CDs. The reflective surface is silver or gold colored. They can be single-sided/single-layered, single-sided/double-layered, double-sided/single-layered, or double-sided, double-layered. As of 2004, new double-sided discs have become increasingly rare. DVD-D: a new self-destructing disposable DVD format. Like the EZ-D, it is sold in an airtight package, and begins to destroy itself by oxidation after several hours. DVD Plus: combines both DVD and CD technologies by providing the CD layer and a DVD layer. Not to be confused with the DVD+ formats below. Recordable formats supported by DVD Forum: DVD-R for Authoring: a special-purpose DVD-R used to record DVD masters, which can then be duplicated to pressed DVDs by a duplication plant. They require a special DVD-R recorder, and are not often used nowadays since many duplicators can now accept ordinary DVD-R masters. DVD-R (strictly DVD-R for General): can record up to 4.7 GB in a similar fashion to a CD-R disc. Once recorded and finalized it can be played by most DVD-ROM players. DVD-RW: can record up to 4.7 GB in a similar fashion to a CD-RW drive. DVD-R DL: a derivate of DVD-R that uses double-layer recordable discs to store up to 8.5 GB of data. DVD-RAM (current specification is version 2.1): requires a special unit to play 4.7GB or 9.4GB recorded discs (DVD-RAM disc are typically housed in a cartridge). 2.6GB discs can  be removed from their caddy and used in DVD-ROM drives. Top capacity is 9.4GB (4.7GB/side). Recordable formats, supported by the DVD+RW Alliance: DVD+R: can record up to 4.7 GB single-layered/single-sided DVD+R disc, at up to 16x speed. Like DVD-R you can record only once. DVD+RW: can record up to 4.7 GB at up to 16x speed. Since it is rewritable it can be overwritten several times. It does not need special "pre-pits" or finalization to be played in a DVD player.
