What's the difference between BR and PAR bulbs, like a BR30 versus a PAR38?

BR bulbs are bulged reflector bulbs that produce a wider, more diffused pool of light. They are ideal for general room lighting and are often used in recessed cans. PAR bulbs, or parabolic aluminized reflector bulbs, create a more focused, intense beam of light, making them great for spotlights, task lighting, and outdoor applications.
