Yeah, is a good idea. But in some countries, the DVD9 it is still very expensive (like here in Brazil).

Anyway, sometimes its possible burn on DVD9, just put more Data.cabs on DVD.
In this conversion will not fit i think, (Data1.cab + Data2.cab), but Data3.cab + Data4.cab will fit on DVD9. So looks like this: 2xDVD5 + 1xDVD9.
But always makes isos and test if not have any issue.

You can also rearrange the files on Data*.lst's to fit on 2xDVD9.

Yes, you can but add strong compression will makes a smaller difference for this game. Is waste of time.

If you rearrange the files, maybe you will have issue when you install the game, depends of the Data.cabs. Because the parameters on Setup.ini:

[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1=Data1.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1;
FreeArcFile2=Data2.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:2;
FreeArcFile3=Data3.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:3;
FreeArcFile4=Data4.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:4;


Im not sure anyway, if you has any issue, tell me and i make a new Setup.exe for you according to your Data.cabs for DVD9s.
