CD Burners with Built in Compression

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-isn't-that-fancy dept.

EconolineCrush writes "Bored of new CD-R/RW drives that only seem to decrease burn times by a few seconds over their predecessors? Check out this review of Plextor's PlexWriter Premium over at The Tech Report. With an advertised CD-R burn speed of 52X, the PlexWriter is certainly fast, but its ability to encrypt the contents of burned data CDs and squeeze nearly a Gigabyte of data onto a 700MB disc is what sets it apart from other high-speed burners."

    Sorry to be so obvious... but if space is the issue why use a 30% more space weird-format disk when you could burn a did that's 1000% more space.
