I'd also be interested in any videos/dvds of Buffett.

Somebody should start a DVD tree for this show.

Let me first say that I know nothing about copying DVDs, just how to watch them...I am assuming you can duplicate them like a CD-R.

If I had a copy I'd set it up 1 of 2 ways:

1--As a tree, where a certain number of people with DVD copying capabilities (say 5) send blanks and postage to the person starting the tree that has the Millenium Show (i.e. Gumby or somebody). The first 5 would then be branches and would copy the show to 5 other people that send them blanks and postage (leaves). This would get the show out to a minimum of 25 people. People with a burner that receive the show as leaves could then offer the show as a "blanks and postage offer to first 5" that a lot of people do on this forum.

2--As a vine, similar structure to the CD vines that are going on in the trading forum right now. The seed sends a master copy to the next person and it goes down the line. Problem with that one is that it is slower and you would have to have a DVD burner to participate.

Personally I like scenario 1, as I don't have a DVD burner. People with or without a burner could sign up as leaves. We'd only need 5 people to be branches to get it all going.

Assuming somebody with a copy of the show on DVD will seed the show.
What'dya think? I'd love to hear some feedback.

I'd be more than happy to do a B&P with the DVD-R's I have if someone would be kind enough to rip it for me.

One problem with this is not everybody has a DVD+R or DVD-R capability.
I have DVD+R burner and depending on what type of DVD player you have the disc burned may not play. Some have DVD-R burners. It is all in the format where CD-R can play in everything DVD+R and DVD-R cannot.

Yeah, some people may be out of luck on a tree. If anyone has it though and doesn't mind a B&P, I know my Xbox plays both DVD+R and DVD-R (tested both). Would love to have ANY Buffett show on DVD. Thanks.

I would like to get in on a tree for this. I have a DVD + burner. If someone starts a tree put my name down. Thanks.
