all drives should be like this. screw having one or the other. having DVD-RW and DVD+RW drives in one proved to be great for the format war... both sides now have access to sell their media to more consumers. and it dumbed down the "DVD+R has error blah blah blah" versus "DVD-R plays in 99.999% of players blah blah blah" argument.
I don't want a lesser delivery system...period. That lesser delivery system is HD DVD.
I'm glad Blu-ray outsold HD DVD by 500,000 discs in the first quarter of this year (no...Neilsen Videoscan numbers does not count free discs). At that rate, the disc sales gap should be 1.5 million in favor of Blu-ray by the end of the year.
