Hello Todd,
I agree with you we should probably offer the CD bundle as a DVD option for
those users who have a DVD drive. Mike experimented with creating some
DVD's for the Beta users and it didn't do so well, I think Mike recorded
them in a format which would only work on his DVD. In any case we will
look into this as an option. Unfortunately the 8 CD's wouldn't quite fit
onto a single DVD which made it less attractive, but 2 DVD's are better
environmentally than 8 CD's. I will discuss this with Mike.
Charles.
