Depends.

When you insert a blank disk .... Do you have CD/DVD writing software, such as toast?
: DVD "
Blu-Ray

When you insert a music CD ... Do you want it automatically imported into iTunes?
When you insert a picture CD .... " Photos, another app?
When you insert a DVD - do you want it to be automatically opened in DVD player, or in another app?
"

How do I burn the dvd-r?

What do you want to burn - data, a DVD, music, .... ?

Toast Titanium is one app that is often referenced for burning various types of disks
