I've got 'RecordNow Plus' Disc burning software on my PC, but my disc drive doesn't support DVD-Rs

So, the question again, do I need to buy a dvd drive or a dvd rewriter for pcs ?

Remembering all the options like Copy are available through the programme, so a rewriter would invalidate the software

Whichever, where is a cheap place to buy from ?

I don't quite understand - you have DVD burning software but no DVD burner? What's the point in that. Obviously if you need to burn DVDs the most important thing is an actual DVD writer.

I'm sure the programme acts as the burner - but I just don't have a drive to actually put the things in

Oh deary deary me.

Let me make a simple analogy for you:

At the moment you are like a man with a novel in his head, lots of paper but no pen.

Software is software, it just tells the hardware what to do. You don't have any hardware for the software to control, so you're not going to be burning anything. you don't acutally have the equipment to burn a DVD. 1s and 0s on your harddrive isn't going to burn any DVDs on its own. You've got to buy a DVD writer drive.

Trying to burn DVDs without a DVD-writer is like trying to see with no eyes:

Stupid.

I think this best describes me, in the words of googleityoumoron;

" Next time search Google before asking a question, and only if you couldn't find anything should you ask someone for help. "

I couldn't find the relevant information on Google
