There are several reasons why you want to
burn a movie to a DVD-R disc. First, a DVD-R can be played on most home DVD players (Advertised as compatible with 90%+ of home DVD players). General purpose DVD-R media is currently the cheapest & most common, and the newest DVD-R drives write at up to 4x.
