backing up a skipping dvd-r ps2 game

[xboson]

just got my new a05 on saturday. The a04 was a mates that he bought for a company project.... and the original, well, er, you know, blockbuster likes their games back in a decent time, no. So i rip to my laptop, transport to mates place of work (he wanted me to email it to him!!!, now we have a fast link, but 4.5Bg.. i think the email server might object), and then burn to his a04.

Bit of a nightmare really, but i'm getting a fifty pack of those traxdata's, plus a trial dvd-r pack from some other place to test out all the other brands and see which works best for my ps2.

So i take it that direct copy is the prefered method then? Any reason why? What are you using, i hear primo being bandied about in here, but dvd decrypter seems to bee pretty easy / user friendly & it's free (legally free... )

Cheers,
Xb
