burning?

[Hostility]

i have burnt many dvds already, but just wondering if the quality changes from the original disc to the burnt one? is it worth it to spend $20-30 on original, or spend $5-6 to rent and burn?

New movies are around $15, non-recent releases are in the $4-6 range right now, which means there are a lot of titles you can buy for the price of renting, so it depends. There is always Netflix as well. As for burning, well you can't discuss what you asked here actually.

I believe that breaking the encryption on DVDs is illegal. Therefore, anyone answering your question is admitting to breaking the law. I don't think that you are going to get a lot of responses on an internet forum.

I'm looking at making copies of a home video I shot on a dvd video camera. Do the copies degrade at all from the original?

As long as you don't introduce any additional compression and make a bit-for-bit copy, then I would suspect that there would be no degradation whatsoever.

I agree wholeheartedly with Jamie, Video DVDs are intellectual proerty and are copyrighted. If you read the disclaimer( if you don't you should) at the start of each DVD you will see that the penalties are very severe because it classified as a felony by the FBI.

Unauthorized copying and distribution of digital content is punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of $250,000.

Cool! I get a comment that "I Agree" and a disapproval rating. Isn't that cognitive dissonance or an oxymoron ? Well, no matter I stand by being honest and paying for what you get.

Great forum and great exhange of information!

Have a good day!
