DVD+RW
Reburnable optical media
DVD+RW is a rewritable optical disc format that can store video, audio, or data and be erased and recorded multiple times.
The plus distinguishes it from the competing DVD-RW format; both emerged in the early 2000s and function similarly, though DVD+RW offered slightly better compatibility with home DVD players.
Like other optical media, it has been largely supplanted by streaming and flash storage.
