[Kamran]

Wait till you reach age 13 and ask again then.

[ricky1756]

it's when your dvd eats too many burritos

[BobK]

It's 6 times as fast as 2X

[realdeech]

it's three times as fast as 4x

To take off the audio or video from a CD or DVD. Often CD Audio is "ripped" to MP3 files or DVD video ripped to VOB files. VCDhelp ripping why doesn,t some one just answer the question in a civilized manner?------

Thank you to those people who answered my question. Also to those who didn't, well maybe it was a simple question that was easily answere, if it was then why not do it instead of being a fool, on top of that maybe when you need a question answering people might think liek you and take the piss out of u aswell

I guess it's too much to ask for you to have checked the GLOSSARY first!!

Kamran,
This is such an "obviously" stupid, unresearched question that people probably thought it was an April Fool's joke.

Because video nuts aren't civilised ?

You got that right.

I agree whole heartedly.

My advice to any noob out there:

Check the Glossary
Read "What is DVDR" (top left)
Do a websearch

It is a forum - you have to take the good with the bad. To those who are berating people for taking the piss - You must expect that if you expect anyone here to hold your hand. Do some research !

Sorry but your answer might be civilised but unfortunately wrong.
You don't 'rip' cd to mp3 , you convert cda to mp3 , and you don't 'rip' to .vob files , you 'rip' or extract the .vob files from a DVD to your HD.

And Kamran I think you may be geting confused between Reading and Writing speeds.

I think we're getting a bit technical now aren't we ? Bobmeyer was providing a simplified explanation because it was obvious that an in-depth one would have gone over Kamran's head. And technically, I agree with him anyway. and funnily enough, he quoted straight from the glossary !

Kamran is talking about reading speeds - The 107 has a 2X read restriction which can be upped to 12X read with a firmware hack.

Oops, I'll go and do some research
