that means, blanks and postage...you send us the correct number of disks needed to burn the show you want and an addressed, posted package to send it back in...then we burn it for you

these dvds are not for sale, if anyone tries to sell you one, you should report it immediately and people can take care of that...these are non-profit, made for the fans, dvds

i would be more than happy to do a b+p for you for storytellers
As long as we're talking about trading rules, I'm sure that copying storytellers performances violates some of VH1's rules, but I doubt anyone cares.

OK its like this, since DVD burners and stuff are so new thers 2 formats that are runnin for the lead format. DVD-R and DVD+R. DVD-R will burn in most players and all burners that arent only +R. Also these disks cost about $2.50 - $3.00. So im sayin that either when u send him the disks he wont be able to use them, or if he can u wont be able to play them. I no it sux it took me awhile to catch on but bassically about i think 90% work with DVD-R and only 20% work with DVD+R.

To put it into stupid terms, DVD+R isnt gonna work somewhere along this line.

I have never found it to be a problem. I burn a ton of shows for people and I would say at this point, its about 50-50 on who uses +R and -R.

The easy answer to this is to only deal with people that have burners that use the format that is compatable with the format your player uses.

Actually, DVD burners are not that new anymore. Good quality dual format DVD burners can be found pretty easily for under $150.

The burner I got (a Pioneer I think) burns both +R and -R. Havent had any trouble yet. As soon as I get the B+P discs back from Fret, I'll start a B+P offer myself.

You done with those finals yet Fret?
