I need one (1) dual layer DVD to make a copy of a friend's DVD while he's in town. In the four years that I've owned a dual layer burner, not once have I ever needed a dual layer disc.

Should I buy:

Quantity 25 for $50 ($2/disc)

or

Quantity 3 for $15 ($5/disc)


Obviously, if I knew I were going to use more than one of these discs, I would buy the 25-pack, but I'm having a hard time justifying paying $50. On the other hand, I have a hard time paying $5 per disc.

Decide for me, TWW. Thanks

Buy the big pack. They're superior for burning movies so you should be using them for that anyway. Oh, and they're DVDs, so they don't go bad or anything so it's not like buying a 5 gallon tub of sour cream or something.

aha

just ask a friend for 1

11/3/2007 3:44:47 PM

^ I don't know anyone who has ever used them

11/3/2007 3:45:19 PM

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, only poor people use single layer DVDs.

Qty. 3

Just keep the DVD for yourself and tell your friend that you lost it.....if they are truly a friend, they will understand.

well in that case, buy the small pack

start downloading movies...burning them...and selling them to make your money back

A good idea... however the friend is an out of town visitor, and is staying at my place. I can't lose it and make it sound believable

What sort of a DVD is it? If something copyrighted, then this is a hilarious thread

11/3/2007 3:51:29 PM

why don't you just buy a real copy of the DVD?

11/3/2007 3:52:51 PM

11/3/2007 4:04:16 PM

buy the big pack, use one and return the rest

11/3/2007 4:14:48 PM
