Answer 1

The DVD-R are one-time recordable -- once you record on it, that's it. You want DVD-RW, DVD+RW, or DVD-RAM, depending on what your recorder can take (check the owner's manual). They are usually about $1 each, on sale.

The DVD-RAM is the most flexible, if you can use it, but it usually can't be played on other systems.

The DVD-RW and DVD+RW can usually be finalized by the recorder so they can be viewed with other DVD players (and computers).

Most brands work fine for every day use; you might want to go with well-know brands (Sony, HP, Fujifilm, Maxell, TDK, etc) for anything you want to keep as an archive copy. They probably have at least marginally better quality control than something named like Bob's DVD's...
