coz i have all 3 and was wondering what you guys think... though i have read some of the opinions posted from before...
DVD Shrink will let you get rid of extras on the disk to give you better video quality whereas DVDX Copy won't, like Puppet Master said...
As for Video quality, I just tried that and compared a disk done with Shrink & X Copy, I didn't notice much of a difference between them... both were on an FX Yu Yu Hakasho 10 episode disk so both had a lot of shaky movement to them whereas the original had some... X Copy does put in a Backup Menu that if you really hate it, you can write the disk out to your hard drive and edit the menu out of the disk then rewrite it to a DVDR... so it is no longer a one step process.... (I have a DVD reader drive and DVD writer) I tried to test it with Rebuilder, but the #### thing errored out after 2 days of waiting for it to finish... Rebuilder takes too long to copy a disk... and unless the video quality is way more superior to the others, I can't see any reason to bother with it since you have to copy everything to the hard drive and still allow a ton of room for it to work... Can someone rate the video quality of it so I can see if I want to mess with it some more?
