I've just come across a site that's selling DVD+R (Not to be confused with DVD-R) disks a a new rewritable media.

They are about the same price as DVD-R, does anybody know anything about them?

DVD-R is the correct backup medium for PS2.

hey charlie,
that's great and all

...but it still doesn't answer the question of whether the new DVD+R format discs will work in a modchipped PS2 or not. I read on another board that some of the the newer version PS2s can read DVD+RW discs, but the older models can't. I wonder if its the same story with DVD+R???
