And I'm getting the same output, totally ignoring the '+' formats from that 
commands output here, Anne.

It was said by someone knowledgable on this list, and I can't quote the 
message ATM, that ALL drives supposedly cover the + formats, so the prcap 
query doesn't specifically ask the drive, or the drive ignores it because 
all (is it "orange book"?) drives support those modes.

Perhaps that person can repost that message?

Mine has cheerfully burnt + media several times.

However, I'd have to make the comment that even so-called name branded, 
high quality drives today seem only to have a maximum life of 18 months, 
and I have had failures of the well thought of LITE-ON drives in as little 
as 6 months, with the 3rd one currently living in this machine.  As to 
whether my wifes smoking 2-3 packs a day here in the same house but not in 
this room may have something to do with that, I've no idea, and I've never 
bought a lens cleaner kit.  I probably should based on that.  Probably.
Damn I wish I could get her to stop, emphasema has set in already.  I quit 
in the spring 89 and surprisingly to me, have never really missed them. I 
was sick of being sick, which is a pretty good motivation.

stupid bounce rules.  I do use spamassassin too. :-)
