I bot one of these SONY external firewire DVD+/-RW drives and have a few questions:
Which format is the most reliable (+ or -), what are the advantages of one over another?
Freeware suggestions for ripping movie DVDs?
Cheap reliable DVD Rs, which brand and where to buy (retail store)?
I know there is a difference of speed between USB2.0 and iLink (IEEE1394 but) does that limit that speed in which I write? I ask only b/c on the SONY manual they specify speeds that are different for the same format, the only diffference mentioned is a note of 'high speed' on a write speed of 4X vs 2.4X. Does thqat mean the 4X is the USB write speed and 2.4X for iLink?
