or DVD-RW media.

If there is sincere and well motivated interest, the cdrskin project could try
to employ growisofs as DVD burning engine. The cdrskin project would prefer to
wait for DVD support being included in libburn, though.
A very limited and specialized cdrecord-compatibility wrapper for growisofs

they would write to a traditional tape device. Try old tape archiver
