The problem with copying rented DVDs is that most of them won't fit on a blank w/o added compression, or splitting them up to 2 discs, and/or removing all the extras.
DVD burners and blanks must've come way down in price! I only use Maxell blanks after countless nightmares with cheapy blanks, and those are still $13/box of 10. When I run out of the case I have, I'll try the spindled Maxells ($30 for 50). I haven't burned anything in a while, tho...
I got DVR through Comcast in September when The Saga aired, and I have
yet to bring it in here to see if I can extract them.

:rolleyes: My settings are to keep everything until I erase them (mine is at least half-full with Family Guy episodes right now) - so I don't know how they can prevent that just for one show. Guess I should see if I can dump things to the computer soon....!
Speaking of Comcast, my monthly bill is up to $155 now for Digital Gold (w/ HBO & Showtime), Internet, and DVR. What a racket! :rolleyes: But at least my Internet hardly ever goes out
