Pioneer 106. Will burn both - and + formats at 4x.

Buy from http://www.blankdiscshop.co.uk/ (appears to be down atm) for £109.78 + VAT and you can get a pack of 50 Ritek G04 dye DVDs for £4.94 + VAT, which are apparently the best to get.

About to buy this combo myself..

What's the difference between the A06 and 106? Is one retail and the other OEM?
