    Can't erase DVD-RW disc!!!

    Yes, I tried it with another DVD-RW disc and this one did erase successfully. I guess the first disc was corrupted because it wasn't readable as well. I was being stubborn trying to erase the first disc, it seems like a waste of money to just throw them away. So everything works fine now and...

    Can't erase DVD-RW disc!!!

    I have a DVD-RW disc that for some reason won't erase. I've tried 3 different dvd softwares and none of them can erase the disc. It gives errors saying the disc is not eraseable, which is stupid because it is eraseable. Are these DVD-RW discs stable at all??? What can I do to erase them???

    slow ripping speed

    Slower rip is actually a good thing. It provides a more accurate reading of the disc to prevent errors. You will notice a difference in sound quality as well. Highs are clearer and the lows are stronger. Fast rips require more artifacts to be inserted in the music, making it sound less "crisp."

    Which drive should I use to rip CD?

    I have a DVD-ROM drive and a DVD burner drive. My question is, which drive should I use to rip CDs into mp3, wav, etc. I noticed the DVD-ROM drive rips faster than the DVD burner. Is that good or bad? I'm guessing a slower rip would yield more accurate results. Another question, my CD ripping...

    Xbox probs.

    Most people don't understand that you're suppose to hold a game disc or any other disc by the edges only. Fingerprints, dust and stains makes it hard for the lens to read the disc. Inserting dirty discs into any disc drive will dirty the lens. It sounds like it's time for a clean up. So grab...
