Well ever since around v5 maybe even v4, ps2's were hit or miss on playing +R. Saying that one or the other is more or less hard on the laser without really testing is not really the correct way about it.

I had a v5 back in the day that would read anything. Well I didnt test cdrw but I tested - and + R on it with full success. Then I sold it so I could buy a new v7 and put a Messiah 2 in it. Turns out my v7 will play everything (still havent tested cdrw's) but +R. Heck my v7 will even play +RW, just not +R.

I really have never noticed any smoother reading out of any of them. Actually if anything sounded smoother it was the DVDRW's.
