Rick, Lee, and Jerry, Thanks for info. Now I have a couple more questions.
It sounds like in order to burn a VCD or SVCD I will have to have Toast or something comparable. I wanted to check the price of VCDs and SVCDs to see if it would be worth my time to purchase Toast, but I couldn't find any prices for them on-line. Where can I find them? Thanks.
