Burning DVD's?

Do you need a special DVD burner / Software, or just software and a DVD player that will play burned DVD's?

A burned DVD won't play in anything. My special DVD burner is made by Bic. Why would you want to burn DVDs anyway, theres many more useful things you could burn like insense and candles

Here's a how-to http://www.members.shaw.ca/make/step2.gif

fyi - saw at newegg.com that some dvd burners are on sale for $120 bucks. it's a 4x burner made by NEC. blank dvd's are like for a buck.

i'd recommend DVD XCopy Xpress for <ahem> backing up your DVD collection.

i've used some software that you'd need to be a video technician to use, but XCopy Xpress asks if the DVD is rented or borrowed (of course not!), then you click READ, then BURN. simple!!!!

There's a fairly good review on 11 different DVD Writers:
