Like most newbies, I'm interested in copying my DVDs. While this forum and the How-To guides do a good job covering software, I'm flummoxed by the hardware side of the equation.
1) When purchasing a DVD writing drive, what key features should I look for. Can you recommend me to any guides or review sites that will allow me to more intelligently pick out a good drive to write DVDs?
2) Is there a DVD Duplicator that will do the job? Instead of fussing with the software, I'd much rather get a DVD duplicator, pop in my movie and the blank, press a button, and presto! - I have my copy. Yet, the DVD duplicators I've seen have copy protection mechanisms preventing my fantasy scenario.
