big cd r's!!!!

hi i was wondering if you could get recordable cds that are longer than 80 mins/700mbs???

cos you can only put like 20 tracks on 80 mins but i was wondering if you could possibley get ones that are say, 120 mins?????

anyone know where????

 

they make 99 min 800 MB cd-r's. They are more expensive but you can find them online. Don't know where for sure.

 

ok cheers, i'll keep looking and try dabs or novatech!

 

no problem

 

ok and can you get dvd r's that are bigger than 4.7 gb???? i have some movie files and when put to disc it's gonna take up 6 gb!!!!!!!!

 

for your first question, you dont even have to buy cds..
id like to explain... the "red book" format puts a size lock on the disc... in some cetain burning software you can turn this locking thingie off.. it gives about an extra 25mb or so.. the only downside is the disc might not work in certain drives.. check it out...
and for your second question... dvd's do go bigger.. but you have to buy a certain drive to accept the new media.. i believe the change is that the disc is double sided.. i believe sony just created the first drive to accept that media...
check out the sony website ( i read about that in pc world)

cheers

 

whoa £19 for a single dual layer disc? it'd be cheaper to go out and buy the film or whatever!!!!!! ok i'll do some more research - maybe there's some going cheaper on ebay?


cheers for that article zulu, helped loads!

 

no problem.. glad to help
