Anyone know anything about computer dvd burners?

no there are duel layer dvd´s they just cost more.. u can u programs like dvd dycrypter and dvd shrink to take out copyright protection and copy compresse the vieo to fit on a 4.7... u might/probly loose the doldy digital sound tho.............

There´s no question in my mind the one to get is the Plextor 716A. I picked one up at Best Buy for $100 on sale, maybe cheaper now. It´s a dual layer model and I´ve never had a problem. If you look around the net for reviews, you´ll find many people agree it´s among the best.

DVDs are far better than CD burners too -- all of my older CD-RW (write many) discs are corrupting, but the DVD-RWs have never given me a problem.

You can go to Fry´s and get an Emprex double layer for $39. Works great.
