Tip of The Week
When it comes to DVD writing speeds, don't assume that faster is necessarily better. For example, if you find a DVD with 32X speeds, it doesn't mean you should buy in over, say, those with 12X speeds.Those ultra fast DVDs may certainly sound fast and convenient, but here's the reality. The reality is that many computers aren't built to handle super-fast burning. So what you may find is that they either reject the disks or just burn them at a slower speed anyway. Also, remember that even if your computer canburn disks at 16 or 32X, these quick burns are generally more prone to error. I've had situations where I burnt audio discs at 32X and they came out all wrong.
Cool Site of The Week
VeohTVI just came across this interesting web site called VeohTV. Think of VeohTV as TiVo for the Internet, with a similar DVR-style interface. You can search for and subscribe to shows. You can also save many of those video streams as downloads to watch later. Its essentially like TV and you can control everything with a remote control. Really cool stuff - it just might be the future of Web TV.
