A question for someone who knows...

I have a whole bunch of DVD movies I'd like to have aboard the boat.
But for the space needed to store them (3 bookshelves right now).

What would be involved in archiving some of these on a USB type
hard drive.

How do you get tehm on the drive? Special software to read the
disks? Or "play" them on?

Richard



could you just throw away the cases and stack them on a spindle?



CDs are ok stored that way, but DVDs tend to be too fragile.
