A finalised R will play in most dvd players.

Some players don't recognise RW.

Also files can be deleted off an RW disk.

After you have backed up your precious photos you do not want to accidently delete them.

Once on an R disk they cannot be deleted.

DVD-Rs can be about for 15-18 pence each, whereas DVD-RWs would be at least twice that.

I think you will find that DVD-R and DVD-RW's are more compatible that their +R and +RW counterpart.
