Where do you buy your dual layer dvd9 discs? I've looked everywhere.... but they're way too expensive to me. I'm beginning to think that it's not even worth it. I guess I should just shrink it.

Unfortunately, the cheapest ones suck. http://www.meritlineforum.com/showthread.php?t=2197

Would you just compress the 24 tv show boxed set to 51% in DVD Shrink and forget the whole thing? 2 bucks a disc is damn steep.

i don't watch 24. :D

can't you reauthor it so you'll get 2 episodes on a disc? shitcan the menus, as long as you can skip forward with the chapters you'll be able to get to the next episode.

I find it hard to believe that someone who brags about buying a new Mac Pro can't afford to buy dual layer DVD's. Or better yet, buy the fucking DVD box set like most normal people do.

Get your shit straight. I wasn't bragging, and I'm not purchasing a Mac Pro. I'm buying an iMac. I can afford the dual layers; it's not a problem. I was just asking for advice. And the box set is right in front of me. I was just going to make a personal backup for archival purposes. Go back and haunt the front line.

I did find some dual layer dvds for 49 cents a pop today, but I didn't think that the store was very reputable.

Go to WalmArt. They have Verbatim DL DVDs, which are widely considered one of the best brands, and they sell them cheaper than anywhere else.

At least they had them as of spring of this year. I think they sold them in boxes of 3. I cannot find them on the WalMart website now though...


Here is what they had:

I'm actually going to Walmart right now for some stuff.


I'll pick up some 5s and a few 9s.
