Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I'm in need for a news CDROM drive and wonder if I shouold get a DVD instead. I'm not sure what the status of DVDs under FreeBSD is: Is tosha capable of reading audio data from DVD drives? Can DVDs read any media normal CD-Drives can in your experience? I'm also in need for good audio quality. Given the poor quality of most CDROM drives I wonder if DVDs maybe have better analog parts, given their higher price. My Yamaha burner has a much better analog part than my Teac CD, anyway :-) Thanks for comments.
