dvd burning question
 

Is it possible to burn a downloaded movie to a cd without having a dvd burner? I have a cd burner and am using WindowsXP.
It came with a program that I know will allow you to burn a "Data Disc". But according to what I have read, A data disc will only play on my computer. So Is there any hope of me watching these downloaded movies of mine on television, or am I stuck with it on my computer?

Most movies you downld have been reduced in size so you can burn them onto cd. That's why they are 500 to 700 MB in size. You really need to get a hold of a decent burner program like either Nero http://www.nero.com/us/index.html or Roxio Easy CD & DVD Creator: http://www.roxio.com/en/products/pc_products.jhtml

These programs will themselves convert the files to necesary format before burning to CD. You know where to get them. ;) :)
