DVDs are definitely more susceptible to damage. We buy dual VCR/DVD players. I wouldn't convert any of my programs because new technology will be replacing DVDs. It's only a matter of time in the library market that CDs will be replaced by audiobooks for download onto MP3 players, currently available from Netlibrary, among other sources and that DVDs will be replaced by online downloads. The DVD changes will take longer to happen and will wait for Vista to be widely distributed, people to upgrade to more powerful computers, and switch to HD TV and LCD TVs and monitors.
