no, but it does provide the basis for backing up a copy of your $50-60 HD DVD/ Blu Ray movies, should they get scratched or otherwise damaged. The is also the option to remove FBI warnings, previews for movies you will never buy and other trash from the disk you have purchased and may own for years to come.

I really enjoy watching trailers for five year old movies when I want to watch my favorite movie.

Thanks, guys, but I was serious about the reel-to-reel tapes!

I know - I’m hopelessly stuck-in-the-60’s technology.

I don’t even know what a ‘Blue-Ray’ is. I thought it was one of those big beetle-like things that people stick in their ears.

Most of my albums (those 12” Diameter vinyl discs) have only been played once, to record on tape, and I can get them on CDs OK. The tapes are still a problem, though.

Thanks for listening ............... FRegards
