OK, what's the difference? You all probably hear this all the time, but I fell out of the loop a few years back, and I'm only now thinking about building my own system. I want to buy a DVD Writer, but I am so confused about the +/- formats. Can someone simplify it for me (I'm kinda stupid about that)? I know Sony has a dual format device, but I'd still like to know the difference and maybe save myself some cash.
Also, does anyone know of a writer that also plays DVDs at 16x and is black?

Thanks, I'm new to DVD burners.
