2 questions: DVD-R and DVD copier..
 

I am lookin to purchase a DVD-R that will record in Best quality possible(closest to DVDs sold on retail).. anyway I cut it down to 2 systems, the Panasonic DMR-E500HS or the Sony RDR-HX900?
are these systems any good or are there better ones out?

Also I am lookin to purchase a system that will make mulitiple copies of a DVD, but have no idea of any??

thanks

DVD....CD......are all digital media, and when u copy them, it is always identical. Now, I don't know what kinda DVD u are trying to copy, but I hope u know that both recorders does not record Dual Layer DVD

Nec 3520 , best recorder in the industry !

If you want 1 to 1 DVDs, you should get one that burns Dual Layer like the one PATo suggested.

Go to pcworld.com pcmag.com and cnet.com and do a search there to see which are the current top DVD-R drives... obviously, I suggest you get one that is DVD-R DVD+R DVD-RAM and dual layered. As for quality, that does not depend on what drive you buy, but what software you use.

what software do u recommend?

Nero's great, whenever something new hardware wise comes out, they always support it. Provides basically all the functionality you could want
