The State of Recordable DVD's
An anonymous reader writes: "The Tech Report has a review of two DVD writers, one from each of the two competing standards (DVD-R and -RW and DVD+RW). In addition to testing the performance of each drive, they also test a bunch of DVD players and DVD-ROM drives to see how well they read the different types of media."
as 1st post. Could it be??

Be sure to forward a copy to Jack Valenti. I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

Second post you suckas!
Eat my lunch nuts
I love my JVC DVD+RW. And I haven't found a dvd unit yet that is not able to play the recorded ROMs. However, I have notice older players that had the layer switching problems, really take a long time to make the jump from one layer to the next, and my oldest DVD player (an APEX) doesn't even make an attempt.
The whole Kennedy thing is so huge because it's at the center of so many other covert shadow-government operations. Kennedy himself was the smallest part of it, because it was actually a power play between Dulles' CIA, the anti-Castro military, LBJ, the Giancana Mafia, and a bunch of other dirty players. Oswald was a patsy, sure, but he put a gun on Jack. Of course, so did other test-mules from Dulles' MK-Ultra LSD-mind-control experiments. Zapruder was in on it, too: He was a KGB mole from way back. And the whole thing had ripple effects, like Jonestown, which was an assassin training camp that got found out. As for the Warren Commission, that thing was a joke--Dulles himself was on it, and there was only one person on the whole commission who wasn't on the CIA payroll and suspected Oswald didn't act alone. He died in a plane crash, after a young congressional aide named Bill Clinton drove him to the airport. It's all true, but nobody wants to admit it. Nobody.
ARG. Still slow.
CD/DVDs are TOO slow for any real data transfer.
gotta go w/ a BIG FAT RAM CUBE.

Bless thee my son. May your standards live happily ever after, for richer for poorer, until death do they part.
How do you like it? How do you like it?
La la la! How do you like it? How do you like it?
Ok, WHY would you buy ANYTHING creative? I don't know why people haven't learned yet that the creative brand name is not to be associated with quality. The soundblaster brought cheap audio to home PCs. Creative has since then kept on delivering cheaply priced and cheaply made products and they offer horrible support. If you want proof of that read around about the Audigy product. I've seen a petition with thousands of names on it asking for bug fixes and creative is ignoring them.
Now. I've used DVD-RAM and haven't had any data loss. You also fail to mention the basic reason I had to use DVD-RAM in my case: it is random access. It is the only random access DVD format. It is an excellent high capacity zip drive type format. If you had done any research before you purchased your DVD-RAM drive you would have seen that yes, you're going to have problems playing the discs on older generation DVD-ROM drives. Newer DVD-ROMs support DVD-RAM just fine. And cracking open the case basically means removing a pin that keeps the "lid" from flopping open.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with DVD-RAM, but it seems to be because you bought a cheap drive.
