Hey Ranjan DVD-RAM is one of the kind of formats in rewritable DVD's apart from DVD-RW & DVD+RW.DVD-RAM is considered a highly reliable format, as the discs have built-in error control and a defect management system.

Yes, but as far as I know, availability and price are the issues and the reason why it is not popular. But I think its mini version is used in some Mini DVD handycams.
