I believe it! Target is the shit. Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. I'll just turn the extra dvd into a ninja star.

That was really funny, ninja stars are fun to throw around, or you could just use it for this: http://www.nancies.org/boards/showthrea ... did=126004 Its only one disc so you could just do that, but throwing stuff has its merits too, both very fun. But the dvd will last longer, unless of course you get bored and decide to throw it around.

I found a 5-pack of Maxell -R's at Staples for something like $10

Thanks for the tip. But I have a PS2 so it won't work with this SVCD.

the link you posted is not for a dvd
its for a svcd
a svcd is a disc that plays on some dvd players made on a cd-r
just like a vcd but better quality

Well, you do need a dvd drive in your computer to be able to play dvds. Is that what your are asking?
