I make copies of my own personally created DVDs using DVDshink and either Roxio or NERO DVD burning software. DVD shrink will take video that's too large for a single sided/single layer DVD-R and compress it to fit. It's free, and can be found with a google search. My last project was video I'd recorded of my niece's high school musical performance. After editing out the scene changes I had it make a DVD image on my hard drive. But the image was too large for a single layer DVD, so DVD shrink was used to make it fit. I gave copies of the video I'd taken to parents and directors of the musical. I'd taken the video with their permission.
