educate me.  I read the information at the vobcopy site.  It lead me to
believe that it did not make an exact copy of the entire DVD, in a
fashion that you can reburn and be left with an exact duplicate.  I use
dual layer DVD+R blanks so I never have a problem with the content
fitting.  An added advantage is that DVDs burned this way will always
play on any DVD player, not just computers or selected DVD models.

Am I wrong about vobcopy?  It seems to want to copy just the main
feature and resize the VOB files.

thanks for the feedback
brian
