For that have gone to the extent to add Adobemans GUI program and burned your own DVD-A is there a sound quality advantage or is it more the ability to have more songs on on disc?

I was toying with the idea of buying a DVD burner to do this but if its only advantage is the quantity of songs per disc then I won't spend the money.

Burning WAV files or MP3s (ugh!) to a DVD (DVD-A or otherwise) will not improve their quality. As a matter of fact, the act of converting the MP3 back to WAV format may actually lower the sound quality! Regardless, the convenience of 7 to 10 albums on a single disc is WELL worth the $35 expenditure on a decent DVD burner. Couple this with Adobeman's script and the free DeepBurner and you have spent less than the price of 3 CDs. Or go whole hog and get DVD Audio Extractor and Cirlinca's DVD Audio Solo and rips your concert and non-DVD-A compliant discs (like the new MVI shite from Warner) in hi-res surround. Even then, you are out less than $100. Just don't buy a burner off the shelf. Get one from Newegg and SAVE! And anyway, how can you get by in 2007 without a DVD burner?

 

I don't watch movies etc .. I have a dvd player soley for the sake of having something for the grandkids to watch .. keeps them out of my hair.

 

Yo Jesstzn,
I'm going to get a new SATA DVD Burner, I'll give you my old one.
By old... I mean it's about 6 months old.

My threshold for upgrading computer parts is about as bad as my penchant for buying new cars...

That was cool man! Real cool! Good luck Jesstzn, it really is worth it to avoid the clutter as well of numerous CDs!
