Copying Dvd's

[BullWinkle]

Just download dvd copy platinum(but not off kazaa cause all copies are corrupt there) and copy a rented dvd. The very worst that can happen is your quality goes down to vhs standards if it is a 4 hour movie cause you have to compress it.

To answer the original question;
It takes about an hour give or take to back up a movie. 321 studios puts out several applications. dvdx use this link to find out what you prefer.

dvdr's give equal video and sound quality as the original dvd. I buy my disk's at comp usa For about 1$ a piece(comp usa brand) I've used dvdxcopy,xcopy express and xcopy platinum wich all were downloaded from kazaa and work GREAT
you need a patch not a serial (we will forgive the ones that are not smart enogh to use the patches) I've backed up approx. 350 movies it's a great system and I advise you to take advantage imediatley!!!!!

People who say cd-r's are better can't affor a dvd burner.all 321 will copy rented movies. (I'm a blockbuster goldcard member)

and the people wainting on something better will spend 10x more money on dvd's then best top of the line burner cost today. Or have nothing to watch

Hello, I am thinking about getting a DVD burner and i was wondering how long would it take to copy a DVD???? Will it take hours or minutes. Thank you.

It takes about 15 mins to rip a movie, 20 mins (with dvd2one) to 40 mins (dvdshrink - more precise) to encode and 15 mins to burn (4x dvd-writer).

Quality can be 6 times better (because 6 times the space) than anything you can put on a cd.

For the moment I would not buy a DVD-Burner, cause the techology is not so far
developed - I would wait some months until some things are cleared.

The best thing how to record movies is on a fast CDr Burner (which are very cheap and good&#33 as DivX, VCDs take too much space - and there are also Standalone DVD-Players, recognizing DivX!

I have 170CDs with all my stuff and think about recording all these to DVD's but as a DVD is currently just 4GB max. it would not reduce all my CDs to let me say 4-7CDs. And I heared that some DVDRs are so bad that they could easily broken
physically. So, I would wait until it is more stable.

Just wait a little more time and you will see the prices will go down and 48x DVDRs will come soon. I am 80% sure.

Better get a dual format. We cannot be sure which will dominate in the future.

DVD-R media tend to be cheaper and have more player compatibility, but the + format doesnt seem to want to die, its leading the way in speed so far. My drive has 8x + and 4x - recording capacity, although its very difficult to get hold of 8x media at present.

I think we would all like to see one format replace the other and writers accept all brands of media. (by the way just in case you didnt know not writers are compatible with all media brands, particularly the cheaper writers - they are the most picky with media).

I prefer to use bulkpaq white/silver faced + disks with my writer, its one of the most compatible with mine.

As for waiting for the technology to improve, well, my opinion is technology will always get better, if you waited a year there will undoubtably be better drives. But do you want to wait that long to get dvd-writer? If you can manage without one then thats good, but i don't think i could manage without one. Especially, when you consider all the dvd movies i copy

This is the second dvd writer i have bought, when the dual layer drives comes out i will no doubt replace this one, but hey, i have a business account i can charge to , so its not money from my pocket .

dual format is probally best suggestion. unless your buget won't allow + format is best choice.but.....theres no problem getting the -format.

YES you should get a burner.and the two click system of 321studio's product.
you can use 4.7g dvdr's to hold all your downloads such as movies and software.(data disk burning process)
