In general, avoid DVD-RW, DVD+RW and DVD+R for backups if you are worried about longevity. Especially DVD-RW and DVD+RW (which _are_ MO- based, despite marketing to the contrary) because of the error rates of MO. DVD-RAM mitigates this with a write-after-verify.
Can you tell me what does MO-based mean?
