Burn Tests DVD+R9 Media
Our first test is of the first commercially available DVD+R9 disc, Verbatim 2.4X DVD+R9s.MKM 001:
Unfortunately, no matter how many times we test it, we always end up with a coaster for dual layer discs. We have no other DL media with which to test the drive, other than Mitsubishi/Verbatim 2.4X. We anticipate to have other media to test by the time we run our 12X roundup.
Since the Plextor 712A does not read DVD DL discs, we were unable to test this media on our testing drive. Hopefully, by the time we retest the drive in our roundup, firmware upgrades and media support will enable more capability on the drive.

...err, ARE?araczynski - Friday, June 18, 2004 - link
the 7 movies in my collection, IS my collection.araczynski - Friday, June 18, 2004 - link
Somebody help me out here, what am i forgetting that I can't find a single reason to actually put down even $60 on a DVD burner?Any movie I actually would want to see more then once I will buy an original of(very cheaply) somewhere on the net. I have about 7 movies in my 'collection' of movies i consider worth watching more then once.
I have no data that i consider worth wasting time on backing up (other then my bookmarks which i make multiple copies of on my multiple system drives).
Heck, I haven't had a use for my CD burner (other then being a second CDRom in my system) in almost a year.
My MP3 collection is stored on a car hd, i would admit that would suck to recreate off of the original CD's (another thing I haven't found anything worthy in in over 2 years i kid you not to buy OR rip).
What am I missing?? Am I somehow immune to the marketing machines of these companies or something?? What other uses for these burners should I be thinking of??
:)

images worked fine herei must say that your reviews have been much more timely and pertinent as of late.
Is Anand whipping you guys with long Ramen noodles?
