[AV Media Matters] comments on DVD burners please

[cbowin@whoi.edu]

     I've begun to compress 30 and 45 minute DV video documentaries
to MPEG-2 files.   That takes a long time: 54 and 96 hours
respectively, but the quality seems great.  Only the 30 minute movie
just fits on a cd-rom.  The 45 minute one is too big. Hence, now a
DVD burner is desired, but cost and compatibility need be seriously
considered.

    Would appreciate comments and suggestions.

Thanks,
