how to read DVDs from CD-Rom

[ianclarito]

Hello!

I was just wondering, is there any software that would let you play a DVD in a CD-Rom? I have no money to buy a DVD-Rom so I'm stuck to VCDs for the moment.

Thanks.

you can get them for $14.99 after rebate from best buy or circuit city every couple weeks.

You cannot! put DVD media in a CD-ROM drive! you could damage the media or might even damage the drive! DVD uses a diffrent type of laser beam to read DVD media!

You can check http://www.pricewatch.com for a Pioneer 106 or 116 which is a 16x/40x DVD-ROM and last I checked it was selling for 54$! i'm quite sure you can afford that.

But they are Busy people and I heard that half of the people
bought an item due to good prices (after mail-in rebate)
forgets filling out the forms and mailing them in.


Personaly I send in about 50 mail-in rebates/year.
