you should be looking for a DVD-R burner, not a DVD-/+RW drive that's available out there. The most compatible one would be the Pioneer DVR-105 or AO-5 burner, which I believe is what Apple is using for its Super Drive now? The IDE version for the DVR-105 can be used as an internal drive for the G4 and should be available for no more than $110 US. A newer DVR-106 is out as a replacement model to the 105. OS X 10.2.8 supports this 105 out of the box.
The DVR-106 from Pioneer does both DVD-R and +R. Dealmac posts it for available at $141. It's installed and up and running fine on my upgraded G4 350MHZ (now 1.3GHz)

JB,
Just out of curiosity -- how fast is DVD ripping on the 106 and DVD-R burning with your G4 mac?
Thanks..
