Get lost in making a DVD? Read this.

For now, most of the people must be very familiar with the concept of DVD, which imported in 1997 as an optical storage medium in replace of CDs. However DVD developed in a variety of formats, which could be very confusing while users trying to make a DVD. Basically, we sort them by the physical formats where data stored. You may find detailed comparison among DVD formats here .

    There are many benefits to make a DVD:

    1. First of all, back up important data, since you will never know when your hard disk would shut down without notice, and normally for safety issues, we make more than one copy.
    2. For entertainment, clone your favorite movies, music & videos on discs, watch it on home DVD player, or also share it with your friends. Of course, only among friends, you don’t want to against the copy right law.
    3. So finally what brought DVDs and DVD making to the ordinary people’s families is the cheaper price. Thanks to mass production and free Moive DVD Maker offered by software companies, the cost of making DVDs is way much cheaper than portable hardware.

Last but not least, I also want to share some about Blu-ray – the successor of DVD format, which used blue ray instead of red ray adopted by regular DVDs. It offers higher definition up to 1080p and more storage capacity as 25GB/50GB. And it also developed to enable recording, rewriting, dual-layer and playback.
