I hear what you're saying m8 but the manufacturers are now steering away from the -r format. The very popular Pioneer A04 is on its own amongst +r writers at the moment, probably because -r media is currently so much cheaper than +r media (a very important factor for those wishing to use/distribute them for gaming). Most people are still having to make do with 1x speed with the pioneer in order to get the cheapest media, but with the +r format, speeds are currently 2.4/2.5 (not much I agree, but anybody with a lot of copying to do will think differently) but if you also look at cdr speeds, then the -r is left for dust.
DVD-Ram is looking like a non starter, +/-R could go either way depending on technological advances. The +r is leader at the moment but -r has much cheaper media - six & 2 threes come to mind.
