You didn't tell us what Mac you have but your superdrive should support the DVD+R media as well as DVD-R. As for which application to use, you can either use the built in Disk Utility burn feature or a third party application such as Toast (commercial) or Burn (freeware).

Regards.

Look in the System Profiler to see whatever brand of optical drive you have in whatever Mac you have (it helps to tell us), and see what media burning is supported.

From what you have told us, I would say that +R is supported. Toast is probably the best burning app to use, but there are others, such as iTunes, Disk Utility, and Burn.

Do as hughvane suggests and look under About this Mac > More Info > Disc Burning for DVD Write and then +R etc. Use Toast best commercial software, Disk Utility free, and Verbatim media.
