talk him into Linux.  Can I get a couple off list suggestions for copying the

In short... you will never be able to truely duplicate a DVD onto a second DVD 
that is generally readable in DVD video players.

This is because ALL DVD-r disks are pre-burnt with garbage of the DVD key 
section, rendering them inoperable in DVD video players... have fun!
