You don't need all the fancy shit for DVD-5...especially since the majority of DVDs out these days are still DVD-5. I still don't see the njeed for Nero, though. Like I said, too much clutter, not enough power. DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink would work just fine for a DVD-9.


Since you're wrong, where do I begin.?

1. 99.9999% of feature films sold in North America are on DVD-9 disks aka 8.7GB disk.
2. Even DVD-5 films are encripted
3. At 22c/disk I get a printable DVD-5 disk, I'm not interested in $2/disk DVD-9 disk.

Since some movies are DVD-9 and are actually that large it takes compression to bring the moving quality down in since. You can simply use dirty compression to bring it down in size or run the 'deep scan' to improve video quality with compression. So when you compress 7GB movies into 4.3GB it takes some time.

I've done a huge amount of research on these and my recomendation is:
1. Simpliest
2. Quickest
3. ensures the highest quality of movie play back.
