What is the difference between double sided and dual layered CD/DVD?
Hi Everyone:
I am wondering what the difference is between double sided and dual layered with respect to CD's and DVD's. If one is double sided, liked a special DVD R, will it need to be taken out and turned over when it comes to recording? Or, will the software (e.g. Nero, Easy CD/DVD Creator, etc.) be able to encode on both sides without it being taken out and turned over?
Any help on resolving my confusion surrounding these media types will be appreciated. I look forward to hearing from everyone regarding this post.
Thank you
George

Thanks so much for the quick responses. While I enjoyed reviewing all of the information presented, I must confess I found leew's initial feedback to be very well thought out. I greatly appreciate you giving a thorough breakdown of the differences between dual layered and double sided dvd's. You explained everything in an easy to follow way by providing comparisons which addressed the theory behind recording to dual layered and double sided DVD's. Also, thank you for correcting my misconception that dual layered and double-sided exist for both CD R's and DVD R's. It is good to know these formats are available on DVD R though if need ever be.
Thanks again everyone for a great job on this post. I learned a great deal from it as always.
