I've spent a few joyful hours this weekend burning DVDs of my 2007 photos, since my pathetic little backup hard disk is full.
Coasters that take an hour to burn are an annoyance. A bigger annoyance is that one cannot tell reliably whether the stuff one drags into the burning window is going to fit on the disk. I use "get info" to find the sizes of all the folders, add things up, drag a combination of folders into the window that comes to about 3.4 gig, click "Burn", and more often than not get a box saying I need to remove something. Why can't those clever people at Apple give me a running total as I drag things into the window? And why does a 4.7 gig genuine Apple DVD-R hold only 3.4 gig?
