I am about to get a dvd recorder but I am not sure what to get. Ijust want to be able to burn dvds that are compatible with most players outthere.
What is the difference between a + or - dvd recorder?

Right now, you can get DVD +/- RW drives that are capable of burning aat 8x speeds, for both plus and minus formats. Most new sony DVD players will read both formats.

They burn at that speed for -R and +R .... not for RW's.... max for -RW's is 2x and +RW's is 4x to my knowledge ... but I gotta say I haven't seen +RW's at any store I go to anyway.

I have an LG Super-multi DVD burner - writes all formats including DVD-RAM, which is useless atm the moment here in Aus (no discs), but makes the drive a little future-proof at least.
