That is not a DVD burner. That is a combo CD burner/DVD player.

Do you care which format the burner will handle, or should it be multi-format?

No.

By "format" I mean DVD+RW or DVD-RW or DVD-RAM format.

The single format units will be somewhat cheaper, you can google for more info on which single format you may be able to live with.
Personally, I'm waiting till after Christmas when I bet that everything goes on sale, and I'm getting a Sony dual format burner.

And a Soundblaster Audigy Platinum and a Radeon 9800Pro and a new Ferrari... :D
