You can also use a normal DVD like a removable device. When you put in a new DVD, you will be prompted to format it. You have 2 options - master format or whatever(i forgot what it is). If you choose the latter, the the DVD will be formatted in [[UDF]] format and you can add and remove files as you wish.

Windows DVD Maker is an application included in premium editions of Windows Vista that is designed to enable the creation of DVD movies in Windows. It serves as a companion program to Windows Movie Maker.

Although Windows Movie Maker DVD authoring was already supported in Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, it required a third-party application to burn the DVD. Windows DVD Maker is designed primarily for this purpose, and therefore features a highly stripped-down UI. However, applications can pass an XML file to DVD Maker, thus using its MPEG-2 video and Dolby Digital audio encoding abilities in their own applications.
