Actually, you can copy a DVD's content to your HD, "burning" is a different process.

If you just had to, And had a way to get a dvd onto your computers HD, You could convert it to a 700MB Divx format and burn it to a CD-R. Then you could watch it on a Divx compatable dvd player or another computer.
