Saw this VHS about 5 years or so ago...have never seen it in DVD format...did EXTREME ASSOCIATES ever put it out on DVD? It was a pretty weird all Tiffany Mynx movie...more of a comp with some kinky things....want it for my collection..any help appreciated.
The picture quality is the same as the VHS, as I recall. I wasn't doing a review, so I might have missed something. These DVD's are no-frills, extremely bare-bones affairs.
They're the DVD you buy tu burn other format is DVD+R. That means that DVD as an authorized burnt one not a printed one
About the difference between them well in a printed DVD , starting from centre to edge there are some holes in DVD surface which create a shadow when laser light pass on them so the sequencies of light and shadow reproduce the binary 0101 sequencies a computer can process . all the stuff needed to do so is expensive and the power of the light is too much dangerous to be used at home.
Your burner don't create a hole but a little burnt zone which also create a shadow when the light of laser player pass on . So this work like the first one but can lose some of those parts because of many reasons too long to describe here .
SO a Printed DVD is almost Eternal if you take care of while a burnt one may work for 4 or 5 years depending on quality.
If someone wants to collect a DVD it is better to buy a printed one

Dvd-r's can be played on most dvd players (but check your manual)
They are the same as dvd's (which hold 9.4GB) except they are usually single layer (hold 4.7GB). This is fine unless the movie is longer than 2 hours. If it is the movie will have to be compressed resulting in a loss of picture quality. The longer the film the more compression needed. In my opinion you only start to notice when the film is over 2hrs 30 mins.
Thank you LCF and Sir these are good explanations. The only thing I would add is obvious (for the layman) that you can usually tell immeditatly from the back of the DVD if it is not a soild color, it will usually have a purple or blue tinge if a DVD-R. I also wanted to second Hardware's comment. I have bought some of the Extreme stuff and they are mostly DVD-Rs even though they come in a full artwork box, so be careful, I did not care because I wanted the DVD's anyway but I can see how people would be irate. And the RIP movie though is worth picking up if you are a big Mynx fan.
[MOD] Juha, that is uncalled for. You personally may not feel it is worth buying a licensed DVD-R but that is no reason to laugh at others for buying one.Emphasis added by me.
I got my copy of A toe story today :) just wanted to congratulate www.adultdvd69.com for the fast delivery. I ordered this tittle last friday night and come tuesday I got my order on the mail ;) I can't wait to see this movie :)
I got my copies of TM: Rest in Peace and sTroking to the oldies...
TM:RIP is a burned copy of the original movie. The guy shipped me the original boxcover but the cd is jsut a copy :( and it won't play in my dvd-rom
Stroking to the oldies... played the entire movie once but now its not working and it won't play anymore. I saw several scratches on the back of the disc :(
Both movies were purchased in www.adultcdmovies.com and I'm calling them right away because I can not tolerate incompetence.
What makes you think that it's a copy? The fact that it's on a DVD-r and it just has a white label with black printing on it?
Well, that's how Extreme was (is?) releasing its old catalog stuff. Any complaints about this disc should be directed toward Extreme, not Adult CD Movies.
Yes it has a white label and the blank printing on it --- isn't that supposed to be a copy made out with a DVD-RW? am I right?
I mean why would the the company Extreme not put the original label (boxcover pic) into the disc?
Yes, Rest In Peace played well on my dvd player but my DVD-ROM can't even read it :( I just bought this optical drive last year, is it time for me to upgrade?????
No. As I said, that's how Extreme has released most of their catalog titles.
Your guess is as good as anyone's. Maybe Rob spent all of the company's money defending his wife and himself from obscenity charges, so they made these discs as cheaply as possible.
I don't know the real reason, but if you buy an Extreme catalog title that was produced in the last year or two, this is the type of disc that you will get. This has been mentioned by a lot of people her in many different threads.
