Definition of "normal DVD drive" will hopefully include DVD-RAM in near
future. I just bought (this afternoon) DVD burner that does all three
standards: DVD-R(W), DVD+R(W) (+ dual layer), and DVD-RAM. Same DVD
players (video components, not the one you stick into the computer) can
also read DVD-RAM media, and some camcorders use DVD-RAM as recording media.
I guess you ment "normal DVD media", since DVD-R and DVD+R mimic DVD-ROM
(as long as readers are concerned). DVD-RAM is of course different
story (and as such much more advanced and versatile media then either
DVD-R or DVD+R).
