I recently bought DVD+ recorder, but someone said that there are more DVD- disks around. So, which format is better?

(I bought DVD+ because it is more "open" and more flexible for re-writing/editing format, and does not require "finalising" after which disk becomes un-rewritable.

Any one with DVD recording experience?

There are DVD burners available that can do either + or -, but I don't have one. Instead, I convert them to VCD and use a regular CD burner.
