Dirt cheap blank dvds

If you touch your software enough does it become hardware?

Nice one Berk!!

They'll go nicely with my shiny new dual layer DVD burner :D

You got any?, just wondering about the quality, 11p each is bargainous but not if 50% of them are coasters.

Ahh Bulkpaq heh? Well here's a little story for you:
Few weeks back I was in Wales with friends, Xbox and large amount of copi....err backuped DVDs. The Xbox's drive was playing up, and out of the DVDs, the Bulkpaq ones where the one's that were least likely to play
Moral of this story? They will probably work as long as your drive's tip top.

Otherwise they're a steal....not stealing copyrighted material though...

although if you have a dual layer burner it would be a shame to buy these, you should fork out for some 8gb ones instead in my opinion. alot of new dvd's wont rip onto the smaller ones. (aparently)

Whilst we're on the subject of DVD burning, whats happening with a lot of the recent DVD releases, is that they are purposely writing bad sectors to the DVD disk, so that when people use something like DVD Shrink, it cannot read the disk.

This also results in a few half a second "flicks" during playback on PC's, PS2's XBox's etc... but I believe that DVD players are able to cope with this.

I have no doubt that copying software will get updated and allow you to skip bad sectors, but it goes to show that the film companies are trying to do something about the huge amount of DVD piracy at the moment.

While I've got games and other stuff by means other than buying, I'm ok with companies trying to protect their products, they've got to do something. That is until the quality of my legal purchases is reduced by their more 'evil' schemes. I know Sony has used protection on their audio CDs that then prevents some older (or newer, can't remember) CD players from playing the CDs. Once this starts happening, companies are upseting their legitimate customers, which might then go on to get the unprotected version illegaly.

So then as long as I don't notice the protection I'm fine with it, otherwise I rant....like that :aww:
