[MacDV] Re: make copies of a DVD

[Mark M. Florida]

What?  Command line?  What's wrong with Disk Copy or Toast?  They're 
both really easy (point and click), and Disk Copy is even free.  If you 
want to impress your Windows or Unix friends and show them that you 
know how to work the command line, then go ahead and do so.  Sorry if I 
sound rash, but the "Mac" way has never been about typing arcane 
commands into a terminal window, and even with the Unix roots of Mac OS 
X, using the command line is rarely needed thanks to the plethora of 
great software (commercial, shareware, and freeware).  So before you 
spend your whole day figuring out the correct syntax for the command, 
check for GUI "alternatives".  Granted, for troubleshooting and 
administration purposes, the command line does come in handy... but for 
copying a disk???
