Help!! (I'm burning)

Hay kids!

just wondered if anyone out there knows how to work with DVD+R's. i bought a package on sale thinking i could burn anything on it, and it seems all its good for is data. anyone recommend some software or tricks to getting it to play on my c.d/dvd player?

yes, I know i'm a moron, be gentle. any help would be appreciated.

thanks!!

whatever you do, if it says nero on it, run. fast.

there're plenty of working freeware alternatives on the net, all you have to do is know how to manipulate a search engine right.
