Hi guys,
I'm about to backup my 100GBs iTunes library to DVD-R discs, mostly because I have a pile of DVD-R's sitting here. Figure i need at least 22.
I don't mind spending a little more money on DVD-R instead of DVD-RW if it will cut the time down feeding discs.
I also believe if I date the backup, then it might be possible to just backup new music at a later time with a smart playlist organized by date.
iTunes is stored in 99% Apple Lossless format. I'm considering using Toast 7, which I feel comfortable using, but not sure which of DVD format choices is the smartest move? The "Mac and PC" seem obvious, but I'm not sure the ramifications in terms of recording time or future flexibility of any of the selections.
Can anyone comment on the best "Data DVD" format using Toast 7?
Lists these options for Data DVD burning...(includes disc spanning)
Mac Only
Mac & PC
DVD-ROM (UDF)
ISO 9600
Custom Hybrid
Mac Volume
thanks, David
