If your computer DVD drive also records, it will not work. It seems to work fine in most standalone DVD players, but if it also records, the discs will not work. This is not meant to discourage people, just fair warning because the Warner Archive site itself buries this fact really deep in small print. I want this program to succeed, and purchasers who only watch video on their computer need to realize this limitation going in.

I was slightly bemused that I already owned quite a few of the discs in this special promotion – i guess my geek cred remains good.
