I have dual layer DVD writers on both my OS2/ECS boxes.  I haven't used the
dual layer because the DL blanks are 
still more than twice the price of normal blanks.

That said, I do use DVDs as backup.  I zip the drive that I want to back
up.  Accumulate 4 or so GB and then cut a 
DVD.  However, I use CDRECORD to do this, not RSJ.  I have never gotten RSJ
to properly close even a CD so I 
quit trying.

The CD/DVD record tools work fine for me.  And I prefer doing it from the
command line anyway.
