CDs are great for having around in the car or quickly getting something on a TV with a DVD player (if you have a computer that doesn't take ten hours to encode it) without digging out a box.
Of course, they're also great for installation media. I always try to burn lots of discs because they're cheap and easy to use. |

*wonders how bad the computer must be, seeing as MPEG-2 encoding and DVD burning is very cheap when it comes to computational power these days* I should also get some DVD±Rs in case I need to reinstall operating systems here, too. By the way, what brands of optical discs do you use? I'm more impartial to well-known Japanese brands, to be honest. |

I haven't burned video DVDs in a while. I just remember it taking forever on my old Core 2 Duo.
As for brands, I try to follow guides like this and avoid the lowest quality discs: http://www.digitalfaq.com/reviews/dvd-media.htm |

Heh. It's a bit hard before you buy them, since you can't check for them at all. And I also just discovered the fact that some Nero apps are now freeware. This'll be very handy. |
