Is there any DVD Dual Layer Re-Writable Media?

Not on my phone anymore so now I can say more.
Plextor DVD Burners are more expensive initially, but they seem to last a lot longer than other brands. I've used them for years and have never had one fail. I like that they don't make hardly any coasters.
As for media, I've bought many brands in the past with Verbatim and PlexDisc being the best. I too messed around with DL rewritable disks a long time ago but found it to be too slow of a process for my needs.
I've never shelled out for a BluRay burner so IDK about using that.

1. I know what Plextor is, i used to have 2 back in the day.
2. DVD DL RW discs don't exist. Period. (just buy the discs you are talking about and see for yourself)
3. Bluray is a whole different story...

I'm not the one looking for them. I saw his request for suggestions and searched my favorite brand for them. Found what I found and posted it.

Searched in more detail and found this:

Is DVD R DL Rewritable?

The "R" format DVDs can be written once and read arbitrarily many times. Thus, "R" format discs are suited to applications such as non-volatile data storage, audio, or video. This can cause confusion because the DVD+RW Alliance logo is a stylized 'RW'. Thus, a DVD+R disc may have the RW logo, but it is not rewritable.

Yes and that is just confirming what i was saying all along...DVD DL RW does not exist. The discs were just to expensive to make...(companies did demo the discs, but never made them for consumers to buy)

For God's sake people...do you really not understand the difference between a recordable and a rewritable disc?

LoL. Such a lengthy debate over a 9 y.o. necrothread
But, to close this up once and for all, @heky is correct - DVD+RW DL never went past the prototype stage and never-ever shipped to mass market. They were too complex and expensive to manufacture, and the development took so long, that eventually BD-RE took over.

Agreed. Closed.
