The difference between DVD-Shrink and DVD Rebuilder is the DVD-Shrink uses compression (increasing the existing mpeg compression) in order to make a disc fit, while DVD-Rb reencodes. Compression is more prone to artifacts than fully re-encoding and DVD-rb will always give better quality. Whether you see it or not is on you. I find DVD-Shrink acceptable up to about 80% after that the artifacts are just too obvious.
Btw, DVD-rebuilder does have a simple mode that can be turned on.
