AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the choice between DVD+ and DVD- formats for recording. The DVD+ format is noted for its flexibility, allowing for re-writing and editing without the need for finalizing, which can make it more user-friendly. However, there is a concern about the prevalence of DVD- disks, which may affect compatibility and availability. Some participants mention using DVD burners that support both formats, while others opt for converting to VCD using a regular CD burner. The conversation also touches on the potential for buyer's remorse regarding the purchase of a DVD+ recorder, suggesting that some may question the decision given the current technology landscape. Overall, the discussion highlights the pros and cons of each format and the practicality of DVD recording in today's context.

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.

Thread 'MS 365 Profile Badge colour'

Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
