OK, everyone has given a very primative review and I hate that. I hope by reading this will save you time and money. Two things that I chould have saved if I would have found this program right away.

I did research and tried to find a way to "back up" my dvds and then burn them. I could not find a way, and programs promised results but none worked. I took 3 trips to best buy trying to find a solution and I kept being told to buy nero. I didn't feel comfortable buying an $80 program not knowing if it would work. So I went to Office Max. They told me about DVD Shrink. I downloaded an older version and it didn't burn the information, it only backed it up to the hard drive. I tried more and more programs and even the demo version of nero (which will work but its ver complicated and time consuming), The demo expired and I didn't have the money to buy the software and I knew I could do it some other way. I went back and downloaded the newest version of DVD Shrink. It works great. It would scan the disk. I would click to burn and it would compress the information and burn automatically. It took about 20-30 mins (with a 16x burner)to burn a dvd. It is great software and best of all cheap. If you download the proper version of Shrink I promise that it will do everything that I just said it would. I am very pleased. It is legal too if you are "backing up." If you distribute the backup copies, you will face severe consiquences. I hope this is a better review.
