Does it create a lot of coasters? Do stand alone DVD players play burned dual layer media well? post:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.12815 Sat, 11 Dec 2004 12:49:12 -0800 skallas DVD DVDs burning ripping duallayer media computers http://ask.metafilter.com/12815/Duallayer-DVD-experience#222801 My theory as to why you haven't gotten any answers: those of us who have dual layer capable burners are all waiting for the price of media to drop until we start experimenting. I know I am. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.12815-222801 Sat, 11 Dec 2004 18:26:17 -0800 PinkStainlessTail http://ask.metafilter.com/12815/Duallayer-DVD-experience#222828 I agree. I haven't found a single use for dual layer burning that wouldn't be cost prohibitive. No point in buying the device now when it'll take a year at least for the dvd's to become remotely affordable. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.12815-222828 Sat, 11 Dec 2004 19:31:04 -0800 drpynchon http://ask.metafilter.com/12815/Duallayer-DVD-experience#223059 That's what I suspected. My burner does do dual layer and was pretty cheap, but the media is still pricey. Oh well, there goes my dream of on the fly copying for now. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.12815-223059 Sun, 12 Dec 2004 09:04:34 -0800 skallas
