but also confused that you would spend money on it instead of an affordable BD burner. I think I’m still confused about the last part, if you go beyond the trial.)

Same here. I mean, I love SlySoft - I use AnyDVD HD all the time to bust region locking but to use CloneBD as a way to skirt around buying a BD burner doesn’t make much sense. The license itself costs more than a BD drive, and you end up with a completely inferior, compressed to Hell version of the presentation in the best case scenario. I still don’t know how it would keep anything intact either, the menu structure, etc.

You’d be way better of DL’ing and burning Harmy’s old AVCHD versions, which were built from the ground up for DVD9’s. Even though they’re now completely obsolete relative to the standards of the BD releases, they’d still look better than what any cheap program would produce after quickly mashing down these newer releases to fit on DVD… and I can’t imagine the errors, artifacts, etc. they’d introduce too. I mean, to take this new ESB release that njvc put together, which is a cunt hair under 50gb’s if you go with the full film + features release, and compress it down to less than 9… it would look absolutely awful. It’d be like taking a full loaf of bread and trying to smush it into a tissue box. It’s still technically bread afterwards, but I wouldn’t want to make sandwiches with that shit. You’re better off just starting with the smaller loaf of bread from the get-go.

I’ll put Frink in a tissue box.
