Absolutely not. Assuming your burner can do both (as mine can), I'd
buy DVD-R (as I do). The only reason I'd use DVD+R for video is if I
were using one of the home video recorders, because it doesn't need
finalizing the way DVD-R does.
But when it comes to burning stuff from a computer, that "advantage"
becomes a liability in terms of compatibility with regular DVD players.
As Oldus Fartus pointed out, the "bitsetting" is simply a kludge to
make DVD+R somewhat more compatible. DVD-R is more compatible right
out of the box.
